It is seen to be a great injustice and it is questioned if anyone will be held responsible.

| 1627005356026068998 | @DavidJuurlink What good is the label if wholesalers & mail order pharmacies patients are forced to use ignore it and the many risks of improper storage? "The label would ultimately include instructions to store the pills at home in a dry place that didn’t exceed 86F." https://t.co/V8PqxigqlL | 5 |
| 1627033313725788161 | @GreenWalker92 @DavidJuurlink Happens every day as patients are forced to mail order and as temperatures are unregulated. This is my son. It's one of the greatest injustices in America's history as some of us had to learn the hard way. FDA doesn't regulate mail order pharmacy. https://t.co/cpasrwCpMg | 5 |
| 1626872092296617984 | @DavidJuurlink "Over the years, the company also backed flawed research designed to minimize concerns and chose not to routinely transport and store the medication in ways that could have eased the problem. " | 3 |
| 1627002019369164801 | @DavidJuurlink Thank you. Not just manufacturers, but wholesalers, CVS Caremark, Optum RX, and Express Scripts know that temperatures can increase carcinogens in meds & ignore the risk & ship meds without protection. @US_FDA @nabp has failed to protect us. https://t.co/HUuZ5ZDa9R | 3 |
| 1626392883333894147 | @DavidJuurlink And Health Canada allowed them to "switcheroo' the formulation to famotadine to make it look like nothing was ever pulled from the shelves. ALL should be held responsible | 2 |

| 1626996814896369665 | @DavidJuurlink @BoesingLoretta There’s a bunch more about high temperature & Zantac in this article https://t.co/qI098IIRQN | 2 |
| 1626935736581644290 | Does this raise any possible concerns for other H2 receptor blockers? @DavidJuurlink thank you for sharing that exposé. https://t.co/sKth9mrQuD | 1 |
| 1626540817937575937 | @DavidJuurlink To be honest, I’m struggling a bit with surprise for this one. All the drug maker had to do was look at the typical American diet and poof, the added risk of carcinogenicity is probably less than the meals themselves. I can feel the c-suite shrugs from here. | 1 |
| 1626514256144347136 | Thank you to our medical colleagues on a continuous quest for openness, honesty and transparency. And, thank you @DavidJuurlink for highlighting this. https://t.co/brdqTmPV9x | 1 |
