The battle for patients rights regarding human growth hormone [tag-tec]hgh[/tag-tec] and dhea expands. Now doctors and scientists are answering the call to action. Hopefully the AARP will be next.
I don’t know if it is kosher to reprint an entire press release from PRWEB and today I do not care. This is information that the public needs to see and take action on. Please read this entire article and take action at the bottom.
50,000 Physicians & Scientists from Global Educational Affiliates Urge Emergency Action to Cease the Criminalization of Advanced Preventive Medicine
50,000 physicians and scientists from 96 worldwide educational affiliates in anti-aging and regenerative medicine urge emergency action to counter a calculated campaign, lacking in scientific basis and brimming with political motivations, against hormone therapies (including Adult Growth Hormone Replacement Therapy and Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy), nutritional medicine, and compounding pharmacies. Misguided and potentially dangerous pending Congressional legislation aims to ban the American public’s access to nutrients, drugs, and hormone therapies and retard the advancement of preventive healthcare in the United States by a decade or more. Take action now to avert the stagnation or cessation of vital life-saving research by clinicians practicing advanced preventive medicine.
Washington, DC (PRWEB) April 21, 2008 — For the first time in the history of the United States, Congress is allowing non-physicians to dictate the indications for a drug, effectively eliminating and criminalizing the physicians’ sovereign right to prescribe according to conscience. Misguided and potentially dangerous pending Congressional legislation aims to ban the American public’s access to nutrients, drugs, and hormone therapies and retard the advancement of preventive healthcare in the United States by a decade or more.

Imminent Restrictions on Access to hormone replacement THerapies and Nutritional Medicine:
There has never previously been a time when an FDA-approved drug was prohibited for off-label use. As more than 50% of all drugs are prescribed off-label, this is a dangerous and chilling precedent which only jeopardizes the integrity of physician choice and ultimately will cause harm to thousands of patients who desperately require new and innovative treatments for the degenerative diseases of aging.
Misguided and potentially dangerous pending Congressional legislation aims to ban the American public’s access to nutrients, drugs, and hormone therapies and retard the advancement of preventive healthcare in the United States by a decade or more. HR 4911, introduced by Representative Stephen Lynch (D-MA), and Senate Bill 877, sponsored by Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY), seek to classify HGH as a Schedule III Controlled Substance. Senate Bill 2470, sponsored by Senator Grassley (R-IA) aims to restrict the sale of DHEA.
If passed, these new restrictions could stagnate or halt vital life-saving research by clinicians practicing advanced preventive medicine, also known as anti-aging and regenerative medicine. If put at criminal risk, doctors and scientists will abandon their commitments to innovative life-enhancing, life-extending science, with a certainty of increasing preventable disease, disability and deaths for millions of Americans.
The above Endorsing Organizations observe that a calculated campaign, lacking in scientific basis and brimming with political motivations, takes place at a critical crossroads of medicine and science when lifespans are at an all-time high and poised to jump another 5 to 10 years in the coming decade. A staged controversy has been orchestrated against hormone therapies (including Adult Growth Hormone Replacement Therapy and Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy), nutritional medicine, and compounding pharmacies, ultimately culminating in an attempt to discredit the new science of anti-aging and regenerative medicine.
Further, as noted by the World Chairman of the International Medical Commission overseeing sports drug testing in over 170 nations, a deliberate agenda to politicize anti-aging and regenerative medical therapies inaccurately suggests that anabolic steroid abuse in young athletes is equivalent to hormone replacement therapies in adults with documented hormone deficiencies. This is a wrongful and outright distortion, a lie, and this deception seeks to confuse the public in an attempt to denigrate the clinical specialty of anti-aging and regenerative medicine.
In fact, aging-related hormone deficiencies, including Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency (AGHD), are just one aspect of the multi-modal specialty of anti-aging and regenerative medicine. Physician-prescribed HGH is legal and approved by the US government. The therapeutic use of Human Growth Hormone (hGH) for AGHD is well within established international medical guidelines and is well documented both by hundreds of published studies in medical journals and textbooks, physicians’ patient treatment experiences, and backed by fifty years of clinical experience. Replacement is conducted at physiological levels, administered by licensed, trained physicians, and monitored by routine laboratory testing throughout the course of therapy. To-date, in tens of thousands of patients over several decades, no deaths or permanent morbidity has been reported in the treatment of Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency.
In addition, it is important to note that customized medications prescribed by licensed physicians and are prepared by compounding pharmacies fill a void in healthcare today. Compounding pharmacies dispense Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) to treat deficiencies, as determined by laboratory testing and qualified medical expertise. A recent FDA ruling has stopped wholesalers from selling estriol, which will soon render compounding pharmacies unable to dispense it.
Hormone therapies (including Adult Growth Hormone Replacement Therapy and Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy), nutritional medicine, and compounding pharmacies serve an important role in improving both the quality and quantity of life in millions of Americans today.
Stop the unjust crirminalization of physician prescribed hormone replacement therapies and nutritional medicine. There are no villains or evil-doers in the community of law abiding patients and their caring and compassionate physicians and pharmacists who are dedicated to keeping American men and women healthy, vital, and in optimal physical and mental performance throughout advancing age.

4. EXERCISE your right to be heard by your government:
A. Contact your House Representative (online form at https://forms.house.gov/wyr/welcome.shtml ) with your objection to the Human Growth Hormone Restriction Act of 2007 (HR 4911), sponsored by Rep. Stephen Lynch
B. Email Your Senator (look-up at http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm ) to object to the Controlling the Abuse of Prescriptions Act of 2007 (S 877), sponsored by Senator Charles Schumer
C. Email Your Senator (look-up at http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm ) and voice your objection to the Dehydroepiandrosterone Abuse Reduction Act of 2007 (S 2470), sponsored by Senator Charles Grassley
Take action now to avert the stagnation or cessation of vital life-saving research by clinicians practicing advanced preventive medicine.
We second, third, and fourth that motion. I trust doctors and scientists a lot more than i trust members of the US Congress. The senators have already shown that they do not know what they are talkng about. Time to send them scurrying like cockroaches when the lights are turned on.
