A Decongestant in Cold Medicines Doesn’t Work at All, an F.D.A. Panel Says. The panel’s vote tees up a likely decision by the agency on whether to essentially ban the ingredient, phenylephrine. - eviltoast

The agency now must decide whether products containing the ingredient, like some Sudafed and NyQuil products, should no longer be sold or perhaps give companies lead time to substitute other ingredients.

        therefore everyone must suffer

        You do realize you can walk right up to that counter, point to the good stuff, and they’ll just give it to you right?

        They didn’t just put it behind the counter to be pretty back there.

      Just put pseudoephedrine back over the counter again. Christ.

      Absolutely. Pseudoephedrine is the real cold medicine. People were saying from the start that phenylephrine didn’t work. I almost never used it.
