How then does the FDA explain Phen-Phen?? I think the FDA is an atypical

government agency. They allow a dangerous diet drug on the market and hassle

OTC's about wording on the labels of their products??

For FDA-approved prescriptives, I thought the key was demonstrating

that an ingredient is more effective than placebo in treating a

condition. A safety profile must be filed, and the FDA will not

approve (or will recall) something that is shown to be dangerous, but

a drug doesn't need to be safe to be approved -- just efficacious.
