EVERYTIME I see that Disudrin ad on teevee that splashes the word ‘Phenylpropanolamine’ across the screen, I wince.

Isn’t that the very same phenylpropanolamine that the Food and Drugs Administration of the U.S ordered recalled for being unsafe to women and children? Check out our earlier post on this below.

There’s not even a line or two in the TV ad that says the phenylpropanolamine had been “reformulated” as the FDA  had ordered all manufacturers to do, for the proper guidance of the public.

Now, if the Disudrin guys haven’t actually reformulated, they must really be full of gall to do that — advertise their drug to viewers that, presumably, include Pingcoy Duque’s DOH and Bureau of Food and Drugs (BFAD). Either that — or they think the health and food regulation guys here are blind.

As the gay radio entertainment hosts would shrilly shout it:”Pakieksplika lang eto, kuya!”
