FDA News; Undeclared Dexamethasone Containing OTC Products

The FDA has issued public warnings that 4 over-the-counter products promoted for pain relief contain potentially harmful, undeclared dexamethasone. The supplements are Asihuri Plus Forte, Ginseng She Lian Wan, Jianbu Huqian Wan, and Saurean Fong Sep Lin. The manufacturers have been warned and no adverse events have been reported as yet. 

The FDA has also recently approved a new implantable spinal stimulator called the Senza System. This device has the advantage of not causing paraesthesias and does so by delivering a high frequency 10kHz stimulus that does not cause the tingling sensations that patients may complain of with other devices.
