Reconsider Robitussin for your yorkies and children Yesterday we were going over some pharm studies and one really shocked me. The conclusion was that Robitussin is no more effective than a placebo. As it turns out, there were several studies conducted proving that, while only Weyth's (maker of Robitussin) studies had shown its effectiveness. And it not only Robitussin, most cough syrups are worthless. For those interested here are the links: http://www.usatoday.com/news/health/...09-cough_x.htm http://pediatrics.aappublications.or...full/114/1/e85 http://www.theannals.com/cgi/content/full/38/11/1964 http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/nation...045_soy07.html http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cg...005EST0044.DTL http://www.nydailynews.com/city_life...p-193645c.html PS: If any of you find a medical article you really need to read, let me know and I will send you a copy of it. My school and hospital have access to most medical journals. |
