  • Mouth Rinses
    Mouth Rinses We may recommend a mouth rinse to you for one or more of the following reasons: Periodontal Disease, Gingivitis, Halitosis (bad breath), sensitive teeth, decay or increased risk of decay, dry mouth, minor mouth sore or irritation. Red= RX only Blue= Available through your dentist only Green= Over the counter *Common side effects found with many mouth rinses include the possibility of staining. We still encourage you to use the rinse that treats your problem because none of the stains these rinses cause are permanent. With good oral hygiene on your part, using your bleaching trays and bleach as needed, you can keep the staining to a minimum. If there is any staining that you can’t prevent, it can always be easily removed by your hygienist at your next cleaning. If you have periodontal disease or Gingivitis, we may recommend an antimicrobial/antiseptic type rinse. These rinses kill germs, reduce plaque, redness, swelling and bleeding when used in conjunction with proper brushing and flossing. Some common examples of antiseptic rinses are: Peridex or Perioguard oral rinses are available by prescription only. Active ingredient is chlorhexidine gluconate .12%. These also contain alcohol 11.6%. Can cause staining of the teeth*, taste alteration and dry mouth. Periomed Oral rinse is available through your dentist only. Active ingredient is stannous fluoride .63%. It is alcohol free. Periomed provides antimicrobial activity for up to 8 hours. Also promotes enamel remineralization, and helps reduce sensitivity. Can cause staining* and dry mouth. Listerine Antiseptic: Active ingredient is alcohol 26.9% in the original gold Listerine, and 21.6% in the other flavors.

  • Drug Information Center Highlights of FDA Activities
    Drug Information Center Highlights of FDA Activities – 9/1/20 – 9/30/20 FDA Drug Safety Communications & Drug Information Updates: Efficacy & Safety Concerns for Atezolizumab in Combination with Paclitaxel 9/8/20 The FDA alerted health care professionals and patients that a clinical trial evaluating atezolizumab plus paclitaxel in patients with previously untreated inoperable locally advanced or metastatic triple negative breast cancer that the drug combination was not effective. The combination of atezolizumab with another paclitaxel formulation, paclitaxel protein‐bound, is currently approved for use in adult patients with metastatic triple negative breast cancer, but this continued approval may be contingent on the results of additional studies. Paclitaxel should NOT be used as a replacement for paclitaxel protein bound in clinical practice. Electronic Expanded Access Requests 9/23/20 The FDA announced that the Reagan‐Udall Foundation has launched Expanded Access eRequest, a tool to submit expanded access requests for individual patient expanded access for drugs and biologics in non‐emergency settings. The tool allows auto population of forms, uploading of relevant documents, links to resources for physicians, patients, and caregivers, and secure application submission to the FDA. Benzodiazepine Drug Class: Drug Safety Communication ‐ Boxed Warning Update 9/23/20 The FDA is requiring the Boxed Warning be updated for all benzodiazepines to address serious risks of abuse, addiction, physical dependence, and withdrawal across the medication class. Changes are also being incorporated in the Medication Guides, and other sections of the prescribing information including the Warnings and Precautions, Drug Abuse and Dependence, and Patient Counseling Information sections. Diphenhydramine (Benadryl): Serious Problems with High Doses 9/24/20 The FDA issued a warning that taking higher than recommended doses of the common OTC allergy medication diphenhydramine (Benadryl) can lead to serious heart problems, seizures, coma, or even death.

  • What You Can Do to Reduce Your Exposure to Chemicals
    WHAT YOU CAN DO TO REDUCE YOUR EXPOSURE TO CHEMICALS Eat organically grown food whenever possible. Many pesticides and herbicides are carcinogenic, and many have a chemical structure that is very similar to estrogens. These can stimulate the growth of breast tumors. Organic food is grown without chemicals or hormones and has been found to be much higher in nutrients than foods grown in commercially fertilized, nutrient-depleted soil. Especially, avoid non-organic eggs, dairy products and meats, as hormones and antibiotics are fed to the animals. The following fruits and vegetables have been found to have the highest levels of pesticides (when grown non-organically.) Avoid them unless they are organic: strawberries, bell peppers, spinach, cherries, peaches, cantaloupe, celery, apples, apricots,green beans, Chilean grapes, cucumbers. Foods that tend to be low in pesticides EWG analysis of the latest government test results shows that the following fruits and vegetables have the least pesticide contamination among conventionally-grown foods. Fruits Vegetables 1) Pineapples 1) Avocado 2) Plantains 2) Cauliflower 3) Mangoes 3) Brussels Sprouts 4) Bananas 4) Asparagus 5) Watermelon 5) Radishes 6) Plums 6) Broccoli 7) Kiwi Fruit 7) Onions 8) Blueberries 8) Okra 9) Papaya 9) Cabbage 10) Grapefruit 10) Eggplant Do not use pesticides or herbicides in your home or on your lawn or garden. Lawn and garden chemicals have been found to increase cancer rates in pets and people. Avoid Plastics if possible: Their production releases chlorinated toxins into the environment. Reduce or eliminate the use of plastic containers for food storage. Certain plasticizers, which add flexibility to plastic food wraps, are suspected endocrine disrupters.

  • Second Time Moms & the Truth About Parenting
    Second Time Moms & The Truth About Parenting Summary Why does our case deserve an award? In the US, and globally, every diaper brand obsesses about the emotion and joy experienced by new parents. Luvs took the brave decision to focus exclusively on an audience that nobody was talking to: second time moms. Planning made Luvs the official diaper brand of experienced moms. The depth of insights Planning uncovered about this target led to creative work that did a very rare thing for the diaper category: it was funny, entertaining and sparked a record amount of debate. For the first time these moms felt that someone was finally standing up for them and Luvs was applauded for not being afraid to show motherhood in a more realistic way. And in doing so, we achieved the highest volume and value sales in the brand’s history. 2 Luvs: A Challenger Facing A Challenge Luvs is a value priced diaper brand that ranks a distant fourth in terms of value share within the US diaper category at 8.9%. Pampers and Huggies are both premium priced diapers that make up most of the category, with value share at 31, and 41 respectively. Private Label is the third biggest player with 19% value share. We needed to generate awareness to drive trial for Luvs in order to grow the brand, but a few things stood in our way. Low Share Of Voice Huggies spends $54 million on advertising and Pampers spends $48 million. In comparison, Luvs spends only $9 million in media support. So the two dominant diaper brands outspend us 9 to 1, making our goal of increased awareness very challenging.

  • Mcneil Consumer : Mdl No
    IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF PENNSYLVANIA IN RE: MCNEIL CONSUMER : MDL NO. 2190 HEALTHCARE, ET AL., MARKETING : AND SALES PRACTICES LITIGATION : : Applies to: : ALL ACTIONS : MEMORANDUM McLaughlin, J. July 13, 2012 This multidistrict litigation arises out of quality control problems at the defendants’ facility manufacturing over- the-counter healthcare products in Fort Washington, Pennsylvania, which led to a series of recalls of those products. The named plaintiffs assert claims for economic loss on behalf of a putative nationwide class against Johnson & Johnson (“J&J”), McNeil Consumer Healthcare (“McNeil”), and four of their executives. The plaintiffs allege that they overpaid for the defendants’ products as a result of the recalls and the defendants’ scheme to conceal or downplay the scope of the quality control problems. The defendants, who have offered a coupon or cash refund to consumers who purchased recalled drugs, have moved to dismiss the operative complaint, and assert that the named plaintiffs lack constitutional standing and have not met the applicable pleading standard. The Court will grant the defendants’ motion because the plaintiffs have not pled facts that show a cognizable injury in fact, which is required to confer Article III standing. I. Procedural Background This litigation resulted from the consolidation of ten individual actions filed around the country. Haviland v. McNeil Consumer Healthcare, No. 10-2195, was filed in this Court on May 12, 2010, asserting economic injuries arising out of the April 30, 2010 recall of over-the-counter children’s drugs by McNeil, a part of the J&J “Family of Companies.” Eight additional cases, also arising out of the April 2010 recall, were filed in district courts around the country.1 All cases asserted claims for economic injury only, with the exception of Rivera v.

  • November 21, 2018 to the CIR, I Am Writing to Provide Comments on the Revised Aerosol CIR Precedents Document. I Greatly Apprec
    November 21, 2018 To the CIR, I am writing to provide comments on the revised Aerosol CIR Precedents document. I greatly appreciate the extensive discussions and considerations of my previous comments on this issue. However, I remain concerned that 1) the boilerplate language continues to make broad assumptions and conclusions of safety about the inhalation of cosmetic products that are not supported by the data. 2) the narrow focus on just hairsprays and aerosol deodorants is severely limiting, given the numerous other cosmetic products that come in spray form, which may have considerably different ingredients, exposure levels and use frequencies. 3) the boilerplate language regarding exposure to cosmetic powders has not been updated, and still reflects assumptions of safety based solely on talc data from 1979, which is not only outdated but is likely not reflective of all cosmetic exposures. 4) the citations for several of the newly included calculation examples do not correspond to the relevant papers and should be corrected and, 5) while there is more nuanced discussion in the background section of the Precedent document, the actual boilerplate language includes the following sentence: “Particle/droplet size data under consumer use conditions are rarely needed when assessing the inhalation safety of an ingredient in a spray cosmetic product.” I believe this assertion, which could be included in isolation in a safety assessment, reflects poorly on the scientific understanding of the CIR. 1) The boilerplate language continues to make broad assumptions and conclusions of safety about the inhalation of cosmetic products that are not supported by the data. At the very beginning of the Cosmetics Use Section of the boilerplate language it states: “In practice, 95% to 99% of the droplets/particles released from cosmetic sprays have aerodynamic equivalent diameters >10 μm [IF PRODUCT(S) MAY INCLUDE BOTH PROPELLANT AND PUMP SPRAYS, ADD: , with propellant sprays yielding a greater fraction of droplets/particles below 10 μm compared with pump sprays].
