Ban Is Advised on 2 Top Pills for Pain Relief - NYTimes.com

ADELPHI, Md. — A federal advisory panel voted narrowly on Tuesday to recommend a ban on Percocet and Vicodin, two of the most popular prescription painkillers in the world, because of their effects on the liver.
This is a blow to migraine sufferers like myself, but I'm sure other products will soon fill the gap left by these medicines. I just wish they had actually addressed the core problem (medicines which are a combination of acetaminophen) instead of two of the culprits. -janelane |

Thank god I still have my darvocet. Why don't they just take the tylenol out? We can take that separate if need be. |
