    FDA Cracks Down on Internet Sales of Certain Drugs

    FDA Cracks Down on Internet Sales of Certain Drugs
    By Leigh Page | September 30, 2011

    As part of a weeklong international crackdown on sales of certain illegal drugs on the Internet, the FDA targeted 997 websites, sent warning letters to 717 sites and forced 578 of them to stop drug sales, according to a Manufacturing.net report.

    As part of International Internet Week of Action on Sept. 20-27, the FDA focused on websites selling unapproved versions of human growth hormone, sildenafil citrate and isotretinoin. Improper use of HGH can lead to nerve pain, elevated cholesterol or glucose levels and cancer. Sildenafil citrate tablets, used to treat erectile dysfunction, should not be used in some consumers with heart problems. And isotretinoin, used to treat severe nodular acne, can lead to severe birth defects.

    The FDA is now working with its foreign counterparts to investigate websites that continue to offer unapproved or misbranded prescription medicines to U.S. consumers.

    Abstract


    Human growth hormone (HGH) has recently been shown to play a prominent role in the control of blood glucose homeostasis. Furthermore, it has long been known that administration of growth hormone in animals can induce a diabetes-like state. In human subjects, exogenous administration of HGH or hypersecretion of the endogenous hormone in acromegaly is accompanied by glucose intolerance in only about 25 per cent of the cases. — In this paper, data are presented which give a more diversified picture of the so-called diabetogenic action of HGH. It is suggested that HGH, although decreasing the peripheral utilization of glucose, is not a primary diabetogenic factor, since its insulinogenic action causes a compensatory hyperinsulinism, with normal glucose tolerance as the result. HGH is diabetogenic only in prediabetic subjects whose pancreas is unable to respond to the insulinogenic effect of the hormone. In such subjects, the diabetogenic action of HGH not being counterbalanced by a compensatory hyperinsulinism, glucose intolerance may result. Thus, HGH may be regarded as anadditional factor for the development of diabetes, the major prerequisite being a preëxisting prediabetic state.

    So FDA want's to regulate HGH cause we are not smart enough to use it right? Or to protect the 25% of cases that accompany glucose interolance in prediabetic subject's?

    Please, find something else worthwhile to do. How about educating America how to eat, since we are the fattest in the world instead of your stupid "crackdowns".

    What is the matter with you guys? Of course the FDA has to regulate drugs and crack down on cheaper alternatives from another country. You guys are heartless. Everytime you use a cheaper alternative, somewhere a big-pharma exec is crying over their lost profits. You bastards!

    Or go check some meat packing plants and make sure they aren't poisoning us, more people eat cheeseburgers than use HGH or rod stiffeners...
    Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
    not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
    and drag down the features of age,
    no folds or creases from unkempt wear
    eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
    no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
    but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012

    The closer we move to nationalized healthcare, the more this will happen as we all have to pay for people's abuses. It has some to do with big pharma but more than likey is a combination of the two.

    I wonder if the HGH is GMP approved?

    All those companies should just move their operations to China, then when the FDA/DEA comes calling they can just say, "sure we'll cooperate, right after you cash in the $3 TRILLION DOLLARS of China held US Treasuries!"
