CVS will no longer sell medications that contain phenylephrine as the only active ingredient
SUMMARY: CVS is removing over-the-counter allergy and cold medicines containing phenylephrine from its shelves after an advisory committee declared the ingredient ineffective when taken orally. While the FDA has deemed phenylephrine safe to use, doctors have questioned its effectiveness for years. The products generated nearly $1.8 billion in sales last year. The FDA has not issued a final decision on phenylephrine and has not requested removal of products containing the ingredient. CVS will continue to sell other oral cough and cold products and will comply with FDA direction. Other retail pharmacies have not yet announced similar actions.

Alec Baldwin trial live: Lead detective in case to testify in “Rust” movie trial, convicted armorer may be called
SUMMARY: Alec Baldwin’s defense attorneys requested Judge Mary Sommer dismiss the case, accusing prosecutor Kari Morrissey of not disclosing post-trial evidence. At Baldwin’s involuntary manslaughter trial for the “Rust” shooting, lead detective Cpl. Alexandria Hancock testified, having conducted key early interviews. Gunmaker Alessandro Pietta testified the revolver only fires with a trigger pull, adding it was unmodified and in good condition. A “good Samaritan” presented ammunition supposedly linked to the shooting, but the claim was refuted. Gutierrez-Reed, “Rust” armorer, may be called to testify but plans to invoke her Fifth Amendment rights due to an ongoing appeal. She’s serving an 18-month sentence.
