Your ability to prescribe bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) and other compounded medications is under attack in the U.S. Senate! Call your Senators today and ask them to oppose S.959, a bill that will soon be on the Senate floor that could give the FDA the authority to eliminate your ability to prescribe compounded BHRT. S.959 gives the FDA, an agency that has been openly hostile to bio-identical hormones, unprecedented and unchecked control over compounded BHRT. It allows them to ban estriol, one of the most widely used bio-identical hormones, and allows them to declare compounded BHRT to be illegal copies of drug company hormones. It requires you to document your medical decision to prescribe BHRT – a simple prescription will no longer be enough. Call your Senators NOW so they can oppose S.959. You can find the phone numbers in the State-by-State listing below and tell them: "I am a BHRT doctor in your State of ______. Please oppose S.959 so that I can continue prescribing compounded bio-identical hormone replacement therapy for my patients that need it! Thank you. " After your calls are made, please register and send an email to your Senators as well. It takes only a couple of extra minutes and every message is important! You can find additional information at MyMedsMatter. Arizona John McCain R 202-224-2235 Jeff Flake R 202-224-4521
