Yes, medicated cotton internal to the body should be assiduously avoided. It creates two highly dangerous conditions of the modern age. Bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics, a-la hamburger disease, and toxic shock syndrome, wich is the creation of endo-toxins from rapidly-multiplying, dying bacteria. Flesh eating disease. This is cause by leaving medicated products in skin contact for too long, or using them at all in certain circumstance. MD's have long known not to use too much anti-bi of either the killing kind or the non-replication kind as it breeds mutations or resistance. We should ban all medicated products like those mentioned, and as well stop pumping cattle full of antibiotics to fatten them, or cure them of what they do not have. The meat that has anti-biotics in it, has also anti-biotic resistant bacteria. When these anti-biotics get into the intestines, they kill the natural fauna of the intestine. The resultant low competition environment spawns the proliferation of the meat-carried resistant bacteria, that subsequent treatment will not kill. Ergo, runaway, deadly hamburger disease. If one uses, in response to symptoms, as a last ditch effort, an anti-biotic that kills bacteria (unlike the now ineffective anti-biotics in the meat, that used to stop bacteria replication), you get endo-toxins and toxic shock. Nice situation. Would you like cheese with that? Drop that hamburger. It's deadly. EC<:-}
