FDA ADVISES AGAINST BUYING ACCUTANE ONLINE
Crackbaby said:
it would be terrible if the FDA banned ithe drug because some people are too stoopid to use it correctly. You raise a very interesting point, Crackbaby. Both in the breast implant and pharmaceutical history, the manufacturers have hidden the evidence of the dangers of their drugs and devices. They also hired public relations front groups like ACSH.org and junkscience.com and other quacky fronts. They purchased the loyalty of so called "scientists" by funding studies as long as they got the results they wanted. The world is now full of tales of the industry buying influence ... just recently the head of the FDA type government agency in China got sentenced to death for not protecting the consumer ... Just like we found with Vioxx and breast implants and agent organge and perhaps Accutane ... early studies revealed the potential dangers but the public wasn't warned until the human experimentation reached a cacaphony level that attention was put on the product. You know Coleah Penley Ayers ... who works now directly with Polevoy on their "I Hate Ilena Rosenthal & You Should Too" Campaign??? She owned a website where she put all of the Dow Documents that had revealed what Dow knew and covered up. BINGO! One day ... that site comes down, plus 2 other supporting of the breast implant industry ... and SIMULTANEOUSLY -- she takes over as my Nemesis #1! www.BreastImplantAwareness.org/coleah.htm It was immediately after Barrett & POlevoy & Grell all had lost at the Superior Court level and were appealing their cases ... early 2002. http://www.BreastImplantAwareness.or...sRosenthal.htm Other women have taken down revealing websites like Coleah after receiving secret settlements with clauses silencing the women. Any deal could be made therein and there would be no public record of it. Maybe the needed scrutiny will be put on pharmaceuticals now ... much like the years of constant scrutiny by the quackbusters ... who are totally anti-science. They are closed minded bigots who sue and defame those they disagree with, and act out like Polevoy is doing here, after years of his attacks against others comes back to haunt him. http://www.BreastImplantAwareness.or...WatchWatch.htm Vast amount of drugs are being sold on the internet ... Polevoy acneclinic site's first link upper left is to portals to buy Accutane and anything else. I find it enlightening to watch his repeated claim that his portal to online drug sales doesn't exist. God bless you Crackbaby ... sounds like you've got a clear head on you .... Here's a message I got last nite: www.BreastImplantAwareness.org/Alice.htm www.BreastImplantAwareness.org/Polevoy.htm FDA Launches Web Page To Discourage Consumers From Purchasing Acne Drug Accutane Online http://www.kaisernetwork.org/daily_r...omen.cfm#43951 [Mar 30, 2007] FDA on Wednesday launched a Web page aimed at discouraging consumers from purchasing the acne drug isotretinoin, sold by Roche under the brand name Accutane, on the Internet, Dow Jones/Marke****ch reports (Corbett Dooren, Dow Jones/Marke****ch, 3/28). Studies have shown that isotretinoin can cause severe side effects in pregnant women, such as birth defects and fetal death, and also might cause depression and suicide. FDA in 2004 released data that showed strict measures enacted to reduce the number of birth defects related to isotretinoin had little effect on the number of women who take the drug while pregnant. The agency on Dec. 30, 2005, began to register physicians, prescription drug wholesalers, pharmacists and women into iPledge, which requires that women submit two negative pregnancy tests before they can receive an initial prescription for isotretinoin. In addition, women must undergo a pregnancy test before each monthly refill and must agree to either use two forms of birth control at the same time or to abstain from intercourse for one month prior to treatment with isotretinoin, during treatment and for one month after treatment has ended, according to FDA. Women also must sign a document to acknowledge that isotretinoin can increase risk for birth defects, depression and suicidal thoughts. About 165,000 people have registered with iPledge, which FDA administers jointly with companies that sell the drug (Kaiser Daily Women's Health Policy Report, 9/12/06). According to Dow Jones/Marke****ch, the Web page comes in response to FDA officials' concerns that some people are purchasing the drug on the Internet to avoid participation in iPledge. The Web page says that isotretinoin should be taken only under the supervision of a physician and pharmacist. In addition, the Web page provides links to other information about the drug, including a link to iPledge. The Web page is designed to open when people conduct online searches for Accutane, as well as its three generic versions -- Amnesteem from Mylan Laboratories, Claravis from Barr Pharmaceuticals and Sotret from Ranbaxy Laboratories -- according to FDA. As of September 2006, no pregnancies had been reported among women participating in iPledge, Dow Jones/Marke****ch reports (Dow JonesMarke****ch, 3/28). www.BreastImplantAwareness.org/Polevoy.htm |
