Guest guest Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 They have been using it for quite some time in a number of things and still are. I'm surprised they even listed it though.

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 Yep- it' also in Tobamycin and a number of other eye drops. Even Somilisan eye drops you can buy at the health food store have mercury. Almost all Rx ear drops, too. I use the HerbPharm Olive oil, garlic, & mullien ear drops for my kids. If I absolutely have to have an Rx ear drop, the only one I will use for them is Floxin (thimerosal free). > > I woke up with Pink eye today and someone gave me some eye drops. > > Yep- you guessed it.... check out the picture > > http://www.lighthousestudios.info/Thimerosal.html > > Thank god I looked at the bottle before using. > > Remember people- it's still out there. > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No studies have confirmed any health risk associated with the identified mercury applications.) > > They have been using it for quite some time in a number of things > and still are.
