Pain label reforms urged for over the counter drugs
A 1975 government advisory panel urged clearer labels on nonprescription analgesics. It recommended stronger warnings on aspirin use in late pregnancy, potential ringing in the ears from overdoses, stomach ulcers, and interactions with prescription drugs. It backed acetaminophen as effective but not inherently safer than aspirin and urged restricting references to specific pains on labels. The Proprietary Association warned that less information could flow to consumers.
