Dont delay any more let it be availble for those that want it ..

dont let religious dogma get in the way of progress .
True that
John, its not so much the "religious attitude" toward this pill that is holding up its release, its the fact that if it is available over the counter and not by prescription then there may be a problem with the dispencing information.


Birth control pills have to be taken correctly for them to work, the same applies to Plan B and in the wrong hands and without the right directions this could be a problem.

If thats what it is thats okay ...... but they seem to be finding all sorts of excuses to not let it be a over the counter pill ..... what would be the side effects if it is not taken correctly ???

Cel will know better than me but we have a case here in California where a young girl died and her parents are fighting the release at every turn.
Mind i don't think you should take the pill with stimulants and alcohol and go play basketball. But then, Americans often think they're immune from side effects and restrictions.

Is there an age limit for buying painkillers?

Then I can't see how they can claim age/responsibility as a barrier here. You can do a lot of damage with tylenol. It's a slow, irreversible death, I've heard.
