    it does not matter whom you are (democrat or republican) both have to work to give us a solution. don’t always try to blame bush or chaney, because they don’t control your life!!! why does it take so long for the FDA to approve a label? if it is a warning, it should go on. how big does your bottle have to be? how many warnings can they write? afterall, i look at my prescription bottle for my dau’s surgery and it’s got warning labels on the side sideways to fit them in. when is enough enough? practically everything listed on tv appears to have the same side effect! so will a side effect cause you to get other meds to take care of those? this is what is matter with the drug companies. create a drug that will solve my problem w/o the need for other meds to handle my side effects. sounds like $$$ in the drug industry along with the kickbacks to the doctor for keeping them in business. so who is truly in control – uncle sam or the drug companies who are making tons of $$$$$$.

    Good Point. It’s not that the Bush Admin is to blame for all our problems…and all polititians seem to be alike. I have been taking care of an ederly family member..and when she was under “doctor care” alone in her small town, she was only 12 diferent pills and taking 25 meds a day. Now, under my care and the care of a family guided member..she is off all of them except two! In her retiremnet home, the nurses state that 80% of the people there are taking drugs they don’t or should not be taking..including many of them being addicted to unneeded pain pills.
    The most overly druged citizens of our country are not a bunch of wild young kids..buy our innocent elderly. The doctors and pharma companies should be terribly asshamed. And family members need to do more to question every pill they take. Alas, up the price to RETAIL that Medicare is paying drug companies (Thanks to Bush’s ridiculous drug bill) and take an extra 50-150 dollars a month out of our senior folks for “insurance” on high drugs..they may not need..and you’ve got an increased problem..not a fix!

    Posts like yours only affirm my belief that Republicans keep safe the United States from complete destruction.
