Tommysdad I don't agree. I did read all of what the FDA said and the science of it WAS in DRMDS favor as many inside the FDA agreed and stated. A very reputable Medical college stated that the science of it was good etc. etc. The FDA advisory board stated that the Delta 8/9 ( whatever) ingredients were "impurities" with no function and not required in DRMDs generic version. The FDA then fell back on the "its not exactly the same " dodge when they couldn't find another excuse to withhold approval. Thye are a politically sensitive branch of the government and responded to political pressure by a limited few senators and privately funded womens groups ( some of whose funding was from AHP). If the FDA can reject DRMDs new application without too many repercussions they will. Am i cynical about any government branch,,, YES yes YES a thousand times yes. I am 54 active in supporting political parties but under no delusions that I am helping anyone but the least of the evils as i see them. CRDoug
