ppa something to do with perscription medications seen the montel williams show?!


Question:

Answers:
PPA is short for Phenylpropanolamine.
This drug is an ingredient that was used in many over-the-counter (OTC) and prescription cough and cold medications as a decongestant and in OTC weight loss products.
As of December 2005, the FDA began taking steps to remove PPA from all drug products and has requested that all drug companies discontinue marketing products containing PPA due to the risk of hemorrhagic stroke (bleeding into the brain or into tissue surrounding the brain).
