New FDA Policy Classifies Homeopathy as More Dangerous than Opioids

“Treatments with no side effects, but which might not help, are considered worse than methadone and buprenorphine.  3,400 people died from methadone overdoses in 2014.  The CDC does not track deaths from Buprenorphine.  The American government financed clinical trials of Buprenorphine. It cost $28 million to win FDA approval. This is another story of the revolving door of doctors who go in and out of the FDA and private practices pushing and prescribing drugs. The FDA gave the company a seven-year monopoly on Buprenorphine.  Over 10% of doctors authorized to prescribe it were sanctioned for misbehavior, including insurance fraud and excessive opioid prescribing.”

War On Drugs Now Sees FDA Targeting Over-The-Counter Anti-Diarrheals

“In 2006 the FDA put limits on how much pseudoephedrine, a nasal decongestant, you could buy and also required a photo ID to do so. Despite adding a lot of hassle into the treatment of stuffy noses, meth only became more pure.  What on earth makes anyone think that going down this same road with loperamide will have any kind of positive benefit?”

Medical Apps: Improving Healthcare on a Global Scale

“Health apps are providing much-needed access and services to millions of patients on a global scale. Efforts to curtail their use, despite the best intentions, only work to deny access to those who may need it most. It would be folly to ask patients to wait in long lines or for federal regulators to verify quality when so many are receiving help every day.”

To Lower Healthcare Costs, End The “Certificates Of Need” Racket

“Everybody needs food, but the government does not require entrepreneurs to obtain a certificate of need before opening or expanding a grocery store. Everybody needs healthcare at one time or another, but the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development and 35 states require hospitals to obtain certificates of need (called CONs) before they open their doors or expand. Certificates of need tend to favor large non-profit operations, which are now blocking competition while scamming patients and taxpayers alike.”

US Experimented on Hundreds of Poor Pregnant Women With Radiation

“Somewhere between 750 and 850 women were given trace amounts of radioactive iron in a ‘cocktail’ drink during their pregnancies by health officials they trusted. Dr. Paul Hahn, the lead researcher behind the experiments, claimed that the study was intended to record the absorption of iron during pregnancy.  Vanderbilt spokesman Wayne Wood told the Washington Post that all of the files were destroyed by the research team in the 1970s.”

Jeff Sessions Should Ask Cancer Patients about Cannabis

“Attorney General Jeff Sessions is actively lobbying Congress to overturn existing law prohibiting federal interference in state medical-marijuana policy. As someone who believes in strong constitutional limits on federal power and the rights of patients to choose, I am deeply disappointed. And as a cancer survivor who wanted the choice for myself, I wonder: does Sessions have any idea what it’s like?”
