Stomach Flu Makes You Fart

COFEPRIS

This news pleased me. The Federal Commission for Protection Against Health Risks (COFEPRIS) recalled more than 250 "miracle products" market.

The complete list is available at the following link and truth that there are some names that it should be noted.

ADELGAC120

SLIM LINE

ambisexuality

AMI-NO-

GRAS BEADS CAT'S CLAW

SYRUP MATABICHOS

TNT TNT POWER PRO PLUS

NOPAL

CHEMISTRY OF LOVE JRI

among many others.

is certainly a good step forward, and if you read the official statement COFEPRIS, one would think they are doing a good job. These are the reasons why the products were withdrawn from the market:

"Below is a list of some products in insured COFEPRIS 2010 at which manufacturers are attributed therapeutic properties, preventive and / or rehabilitation, same lack a scientific basis to support it and lack of authorization for marketing by Health Authority therefore recommended to people not to use them. "

Excellent, but missing something.

holes that currently have regulations do not prevent charlatans sell to your liking. COFEPRIS It is recognized in this article and mention that you could reversed with the new regulations on advertising that's out soon. It sounds good, but regular advertising is not enough.

COFEPRIS It acknowledges in the interview that these companies simply change their name and they changed their name to their products, and fixed the problem. This is not solved by simply regulate advertising.

Mexico is characterized by warm regulations in many aspects, and public health is no exception. I think that apart from regular advertising, should focus on attacking the owners of these companies as they acknowledge, too, which puts them just fine. This is not enough, we're talking about public health. I guess they do because the same holes that exist in the regulations work against it and not to jail will be able to get.

On the other hand, if you really get married with the idea that the products lack a scientific base will not be accepted as virtually acupuncture and homeopathy would go to trash, but not, until we NOMs for such practices, a homeopathic pharmacopoeia and up to the Polytechnic Institute of Homeopathy. This shows that the regulator is ineffective to include science in its rules and regulations.

Just before it happened about the homeopathic suicide , I talked to a doctor for this event, and I answered "yes homeopathy works, but only as a placebo. I use it when I have a patient which I have to monitor, but it is only as monitoring. " Well, we're screwed. It is true that the placebo effect is powerful, but because the recommendations of the "doctors" are not helpful. Homeopathy A homeopath prescribing and the doctor too. Bad combination.

It is certainly good news and I applaud the COFEPRIS withdrawn from the market that these drugs but we lack a good way to go if we have the standard that the government will only accept science-based medicines.
