Subject: SILICONE IMPLANT ACTION ALERT

Hello,The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) notified Inamed Corporation, a "global medical device company", that its request for Pre-Market Approval (PMA) for silicone gel-filled breast implants will be considered at a FDA Advisory Panel Meeting scheduled for October 14 and 15, 2003."We are pleased the FDA will review our PMA," said Nick Teti, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We support the FDA's upcoming review, and we welcome the opportunity to present our data to the FDA Panel."If you haven't done so already, please consider going to the link at NOW.org to register your name to slow down the fast-track (Pre-Market Approval) of silicone breast implants that Inamed is seeking. NOW is asking for long-term studies of the implants' health effects. Let's tell the FDA that we care more about women's health than Inamed's bottom line.
