I also checked out the website and called the 800 number listed. Any of

these products made prior to December 2000 are in the recall. They have

since changed them. They will send you a return postage sticker and also

coupons for product. At least the Triaminic people did. I have sent mine

back postage free.

Hi Lori,

Thanks for this reminder. One of our members sent this info a few weeks back but with it being the cold and flu season, it's good to spread the word again.

Thanks,

Georgina

Drug Recall -- Any Med containing Phenylpropanolamine.

I thought this warning should be passed on to everyone,especially since it is cold and flu season. I checked out the FDA website to be sure this wasn't a hoax. It is not. If you know of anyone who doesn't have an email address please pass this on. Listed below are several commonly used drugs like Robitussin CFStop taking anything containing this ingredient. Phenylpropanolamine. http://www.elslaw.com/ppa_health.htmIt has been linked to increased hemorrhage stroke (bleeding in brain) among women 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.
