DRUG RECALL !!!

[辟邪]

朋友发的，我不懂医，大家自己在意

All drugs containing PHENYLPROPANOLAMINE are being
recalled. You may want to try calling the 800 number listed on
most drug boxes and inquire about a REFUND.

Please read this CAREFULLY. Also, please pass this on
to everyone you know.

STOP TAKING anything containing this ingredient. It
has been linked to increased hemorrhagic stroke (bleeding in
brain) among women ages 18-49 in the three days after starting
use of medication. Problems were not found in men, but the FDA
recommended that everyone (even children) seek alternative medicine.

I just found out and called the 800# on the container
for Triaminic and they informed me that they are
voluntarily recalling the following medicines because
of a certain ingredient that is causing strokes and
seizures in children:
Orange 3D Cold & Allergy Cherry (Pink)
3D Cold & Cough Berry
3D Cough Relief Yellow 3D Expectorant
They are asking you to call them at 800-548-3708 with
the lot number on the box so they can send you postage for you
to send it back to them, and they will also issue you a refund.
If you know of anyone else with small children, PLEASE PASS THIS ON. HIS
IS SERIOUS STUFF!
DO PASS ALONG TO ALL ON YOUR MAILING LIST so people are informed.
They can then pass it along to their families.
To confirm these findings please take time to check the following:

这药还有其他的副作用，但是剂量一般用得不大，国内的药物学教科书上写得很清楚
