URGENT: Cough medicine recally (attention all DXMers)
I came across this online, and thought it might be a little important to those who are regular DXM users.

Don't know to how many of these drugs it applies too, but it wont hurt you to buy another bottle.

Quote:
<B>All drugs containing PHENYLPROPANOLAMINE are being recalled.

[P]lease 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.

The following medications [may] contain Phenylpropanolamine:
Acutrim Diet Gum Appetite Suppressant
Acutrim Plus Dietary Supplements
Acutrim Maximum Strength Appetite Control

This is a good thing guys because you don't want to be taking cough syrup that contains PHENYLPROPANOLAMINE because it's hard on your heart and really bad for you. You want the cough syrup that contains only DXM as the main ingredient.
