Prozac flushed down the toilet is affecting sea life

Shrimp-go-towards-light-antidepressants_23491_600x450
Remnants of antidepressant drugs flushed into waterways worldwide are altering shrimp behavior and making them easier prey, experts say. (See "Cocaine, Spices, Hormones Found in Drinking Water.") To mimic conditions in the wild, scientists exposed the estuary-dwelling shrimp Echinogammarus marinus to the antidepressant fluoxetine at levels detected in average sewage-treatment waste. Fluoxetine is the key ingredient in the drugs Prozac and Sarafem.

Should the Pill Be Sold Over the Counter?

Now a group of health workers and advocates are taking advantage of a mounting body of research that shows the pill could be safe for nonprescription use. They hope to have a proposal before the FDA within the year and an over-the-counter pill available in five years. And though their work focuses on female reproductive care, it offers a glimpse into what the future of American health care and medication could be.

John Stossel: War on drugs *worse* than drugs

2009johnstosselsig_135px
I understand that people on drugs can do terrible harm -- wreck lives and hurt people. But that's true for alcohol, too. But alcohol prohibition didn't work. It created Al Capone and organized crime. Now drug prohibition funds nasty Mexican gangs and the Taliban. Is it worth it? I don't think so.

The Oregon Supreme Court has ruled that high school students can be searched for illegal drugs without a warrant if school officials have a reasonable suspicion based on specific facts. The court said Thursday schools are not held to the higher standard of requiring probable cause for a search if officials believe there is an immediate risk of harm from possession of illegal drugs on school grounds.

Viral hit “Pot Farm” Facebook Game Promotes Organic Growth

Potfarmlogo
Pot Farm is a Facebook game where you grow special ‘herbs’, and its been catching my eye more and more lately as it virally spreads among my friends’ news feeds, especially among friends from California and Vancouver. Now at nearly 500,000 MAU, the game’s premise, great production value and humor give it a naturally viral appeal, and players are responding and sharing it as much as they can. I had a chance to ask a few questions to the Pot Farm team, and let’s just say their answers are as quirky as their game.

Drugs-weapon
