Senators Kennedy (D-MA), Burr (R-NC) and Roberts (R-KS) have circulated a
copy of proposed draft legislation that would greatly restrict access to
compounded medications. The legislation would severely restrict and possibly
deny your access to critical medications. According to Parents and
Professionals for Customized Care (PsC2)
The so-called Safe Drug Compounding Act of 2007 would, among other things, broadly eliminate the availability of many critical, commonly compounded medications that many patients rely on.
Dr. Jaquelyn McCandless states that [for the autism community], "this means
that our children would not be able to obtain MB-12 (nasal or injections),
LDN, detoxification agents such as DMSA and DMPS, secretrin, transdermals
(such as NAC, TTFD, ALA, GSH), etc. (not to mention bio-identical natural
hormone replacement and many other extremely important health items that
have to be compounded). This is clearly written to benefit pharmaceutical
companies, which is also behind the move to restrict or eliminate many of
our vitamin- nutrient compounds. We have to become activists to protect our
children; it would be devastating to not be able to get many of these
compounds that are helping kids to an unprecedented degree now."
