Herbal supplements, vitamins, minerals, etc do not have the same regulations as other drugs. They do not have to undergo the same testing procedures and safety procedures. Also, what actually goes in the bottle is not regulated in the same way. There is no guarantee that what is in the bottle matches what is on the label. The compositions and ingredients may change from bottle to bottle and there may be additional ingredients that are not listed on the label. You need to be careful when taking dietary supplements, herbal supplements, vitamins, and minerals. Check out the FDA webpage for more info.

you are hitting the wrong market-- all of the women here are not having menstral cramps! And the product already exists and is called sabina-- I take it when I am not pregnant

Because something has the word herbal in it, does not mean it is any safer than a commercially produced drug. Read up on the drugs you use as well as the herbs/vitamins/minerals you use to find out what you are really putting in your body. The government has an incredible amount of information on all of this online.

The FDA is in the business of making big money from pharmaceuticals...of course they are going to shoot down anything that competes with their business! Herbs were mans first medicine.

By the way, did you know that 250,000-300,000 die every year due to prescribed drugs and medical errors?

I wouldn’t buy it. I don’t take anything for cramps, I distrust herbal supplements, and I’ve never been in a Wal-Mart anyway.
