Is Phenylephrine an Effective replacement for Pseudophedrine?
Article
I'm glad to see this being brought up to the FDA for comparison. I know many people who this 'equivalent' drug doesn't work for them. I continue to use it when needed, and get okay results. My own husband cannot use it, and doesn't want to go through the trouble at the pharmacy counter of waiting in line, going through an id scan, phone address and photo check - all for a $2.00 box of medication when he is sick.
The lady at the end of the article says 'it's being well received in the marketplace - so it must be working'... well, for some people, not all of them! And how can they tell how many people are just going without, and suffering through their colds?
When you introduce a new product to replace a product that has been restricted. How can you tell how many people are just not buying the restricted product, AND not buying the new product?
