Guest guest Posted October 27, 2006 Report Share Posted October 27, 2006 This has been an issue since late 2000. One study showed an increase in hemorrhagic stroke in a small amount of women only. However, the FDA thought the risk was too great and started taking steps to remove it from the market. Today you would probably be hard pressed to find some in an OTC product and most doctors wouldn’t prescribe it either. I hope this update helps.

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2006 Report Share Posted October 28, 2006 Well, if you click on the link in the article it comes up as a real site. It is dated December 2005, but not having ever seen or heard about it, I sent it along. Snopes says it's true, just outdated. But like I said, I never read it or heard about it so I sent it.
