What's going on with BHRT- Pharmacists in Washington

The FDA is considering new regulations that could deny access to life-changing, bioidentical hormone therapies to millions of Americans. These proposed rules are the result of a flawed report, tainted by conflict of interest and unsound methodology.

To stop these proposed rules from going into effect—and to prevent what would be devasting consequences for those people who depend on these treatments—a group of physicians, pharmacists, patients, and others are banding together to ensure their objections are heard. In a recent episode of PharmaSalon, Drs. Peter Koshland and Jim Hrncir spoke of this movement, and their recent testimony before a panel examining the FDA’s potential changes.  

While thousands have already joined the campaign to fight the new rules, the doctors—themselves compounding pharmacists who help prepare these bio-identical hormone therapies AND test their results—warn more voices are needed. The good news is that there is an easy way to get involved.
