To your family, friends & business Associates

Forward to your family, friends

 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. 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.

 I just found out and called the 800# on the
 container for Triaminic and they informed me that
 they are voluntarily
 recalling the following medicines because of a
 certain ingredient that is causing strokes and
 seizures in children :
 
 Orange 3D Cold & Allergy Cherry (Pink)
 3D Cold & Cough Berry
 3D Cough Relief Yellow 3D Expectorant
 
 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. THIS IS SERIOUS STUFF!
 
 DO PASS ALONG TO ALL ON YOUR MAILING LIST so people
 are informed. They can then pass it along to their
 families.
 To confirm these findings please take time to check
 the following:

 PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO YOUR CHILDREN IN CASE THEY
 GIVE IT TO THEIR CHILDREN OR TO FRIENDS WHO HAVE
 CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN
