Blah blah muh covid. The real lead here is that they approved this medicine for 50 fucking years before they figured out it doesn't work.

It's a great point. There is ZERO reason to pull it. Is aspirin next or vitamin C?

Big Pharma is moving to restrict this drug just as their new WuFlu "Vaccine" is about to be pushed onto everyone for Round 2?

Never Forget this is exactly what they did to Ivermectin, and Hydroxychloroquine at the start of Round 1 of WuFlu.

And... Here is a study pushing Big Pharma's version of it in 2023.

While yes, sure.....but that shit never really helped, or if so, was vastly not effective (at least for me). Pseudoephedrine, yes. This shit, no.

[ - ] rzr97 2 points 1.7 yearsSep 13, 2023 14:39:18 ago (+2/-0)

It never helped YOU. For plenty of people it worked. There is zero reason to pull it and it costs millions upon millions to fund all these studies. Something is up. It's like pulling aspirin or vitamin C. There simply is no reason.

I didn't say "go ahead, remove it". What I said was, "was vastly not effective (at least for me)", tacitly acknowledging there "could" be people it does help. I'll stand by "VASTLY NOT EFFECTIVE", because, as I've found, it's a shit compound that doesn't work effectively as the other stuff, and I'd rather not waste my time.

From DRUGS.COM, back in 2017...so nothing recent. Read it.

https://www.drugs.com/answers/pseudoephedrine-vs-phenylephrine-166721.html

This acknowledges no study (convenient, eh?) has been done comparing the two drugs, but it does say there's some major differences in absorption.

Of note:

The intestines will absorb only about 38% of the amount of phenylephrine in one tablet, while pseudoephedrine is 100% absorbed.

And,

The effects of phenylephrine do not last as long as pseudoephedrine. Therefore, phenylephrine needs to be taken every four hours, while pseudoephedrine can be taken every four to six hours.

About a 1/3 as good as pseudoephedrine, and lasts 2/3 as long. And there's plenty of anecdotal information from a bunch of people, in case that matters--which, scientifically, it does not.

Leave it on the shelf, I DGAF. It doesn't work (for me), and I'll use the other IF I need to.

[ - ] rzr97 0 points 1.7 yearsSep 14, 2023 14:51:04 ago (+0/-0)

Leave it on the shelf, I DGAF.

This is the point. I do agree for this purpose ephedrine based stuff is better but that's behind the counter and limited. Still that's a distraction. The point is they specifically ARE NOT going to leave it on the shelf and there is a reason that has NOTHING to do with effectiveness.

These kikes are absolute monsters man. I ordered 5 bottles of 300 tablets just because they are doing this. Something is up probably related to this new (((covid))) strain. It's going to be just like ivermectin.

But first they allow an ineffective drug to sell for years until subs paid to fda ran out?

You don't really need drugs anyway. Those two just treat the most outward symptoms and make you feel good. You don't need a vaccine either. Just toughen up.

(((They))) probably found out it cures covid.

Gather 'round children, and I shall tell you a tale of a time when we had OTC pseudoephedrine...

Then the meth-heads discovered it, and "for our safety"....blahblahblah...I still get the good shit, but I have to ask for it behind the counter. Then they "need" my DL, have me certify a couple screens...ah, it's all fucking bullshit.
