Premarin - REPOST

I am in shock and disgusted after having just seen an ad on TV for the drug Premarin .. a drug designed for menopausal women.

Premarin is made from the urine of pregnant horses .. and their babies are then sent to slaughter while their moms are made pregnant again.

Please, if you or anyone you know takes the drug .. ask your doctor for an alternative!!!!

I read this and it made me feel a small bit better:

'Wyeth is working with the North American Equine Ranching Information Council (NAERIC) to develop and implement programs to help producers market their mares. In an effort to protect the mares from slaughter, the council is considering a transportation subsidy to move the mares out of the pee provinces and into 'legitimate' horse sales in Eastern Canada and the U.S.'
