Drug Cancer Victims Fight FDA Seizure Of Laetrile Shipment
In Streetsboro Ohio 54 year old Marjorie Hart describes pain relief from Laetrile and plans to appeal after FDA agents confiscated 800 tablets. Hart, a former chemist and WWII Navy veteran, says the drug costs 1.05 dollars per tablet and she intended to share the supply with ten other cancer victims. She accuses authorities of wrongfully taking her order while noting radiation centers would feel financially hit if home use became common. The FDA and many doctors deem Laetrile a peach derivative and oppose its use.
