Hi Dr. Bob,
I'm not trying to be difficult, but I am a little confused. If a U.S. supplier offers a "dietary supplement", shipped from within the country, doesn't that make it OK unless it's clearly a controlled substance? I really haven't investigated the Picamilon situation (or even tried the stuff), but it looks like it's here in the U.S., and it seems that there are various other "supplements" that aren't FDA-approved, yet are readily available over the internet from within the country.
I understand the policy re: prescription meds imported from other countries, but the supplement issue seems much fuzzier, and now I'm not clear on what's OK to post and what's not.
