FDA-Approved Prescription Drugs Later Pulled from the Market

[LIBrty4all 3,754]

A nice list of FDA-approved drugs.  Remember, folks, approval does NOT equate to safe for human consumption.

 

 

Quote

Below are the 35 drugs we could find that have been recalled from the US market since the 1970s, some that had been in use since the 1930s. A sample of advertisements for only some of the drugs are included because there is a scarcity of ads for withdrawn drugs online due to manufacturers removing ads for withdrawn drugs as part of the agreement to no longer market the drugs.     

 

According to the FDA, a “drug is removed from the market when its risks outweigh its benefits. A drug is usually taken off the market because of safety issues with the drug that cannot be corrected, such as when it is discovered that the drug can cause serious side effects that were not known at the time of approval.” The FDA also takes into account the number of people taking a drug being considered for removal so as to not harm those patients.

Seldane was not considered an imminent threat. The FDA pulled Seldane from the market because Allegra and Allegra D were produced by the same company and were deemed safer by the FDA.

I still miss Seldane with a passion.

 

An OTC one that I still intensely miss is Triaminicin.  Only thing that ever killed both headache and congestion to perfection.

Umm, you need to check your math. 4.73 million Covid deaths vs 7.89 billion people in the world.  That equals 0.0599% by my calculation.

FDA approved doesn't necessarily mean safe. Not only that but there is no FDA approved version of the covid vaccine available to the public and there probably won't be for some time but we are told its FDA approved now so it can be mandated.

Facts.  And that's what matters.
