Subject: Drug Recall...


Subj: Drug Recall... All drugs containing Phenylpropanolamine are being
recalled. You may want to try calling the 800 number listed on most drug
boxes and inquire about a refund. Please read this carefully, as I know
that some of you may use some of these drugs (Alka Seltzer Plus for one).
Also, please pass this on to everyone you know. Stop taking anything
containing this ingredient. It has been linked to increased hemorrhagic
stroke (bleeding in brain) among women ages 18-49 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.

They are asking you to call them at 800-548-3708 with the lot number on
the box so they can send you postage for you to send it back to them, and
they will also issue you a refund. If you know of anyone else with small
children, please pass this on. Serious stuff. Do pass along to all on
your mailing list so people are informed.
