Can't really trust the FDA and their decisions.

An excerpt from article:

The FDA mission was not created to determine if a drug is better than its counterpart currently on the market. It is only supposed to approve its effectiveness and safety - not its ability to compete on pharmacy shelves. However, this is the main malfunction of the FDA currently. It is well known that several FDA advisors have paid affiliations with drug companies and other organizations pushing drug approval on them. This helps gain the approval of safe medications and unsafe ones alike for those seeking a stamp on their drug. It stands to reason, if Merck is paying someone on the FDA board to approve their latest LDL lowering drug, and another company comes along with a much more effective, much safer drug, Merck gets approved. The safer drug gets dropped, becomes subject to inquiry and is stalled in government red tape for years. FDA approval has nothing to do with a drug's safety.


This product may even have a bigger hurdle being that it is "affiliated" with that evil marijuana along with harming big pharma profits. The powers that be may try to sweep this under the rug.
