CVS, Walgreens receive FDA warning over ‘unapproved’ eye drops

The US Food and Drug Administration sent warning letters to CVS, Walgreens, and six other retail companies this week for selling over-the-counter eye drops that were illegally marketed and pose a public health concern.

US regulators said they consider the eye drops to be unapproved drugs, a violation of federal law. The drops are marketed, regulators say illegally, to treat conditions like conjunctivitis (also known as “pink eye”), cataracts, glaucoma, and other issues. Some of these eye drops include those marketed and branded by CVS and Walgreens.

The labels on some of the eye products, the FDA said Tuesday, say the products contain silver. Long-term use of drugs containing silver can cause areas of the skin and other body tissue, including the eye, to permanently turn gray or blue-gray, which is called “argyria.”

How to LA: How The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum Re-Integrated The NFL | LAist

Halley Harding was a baseball player-turned-sportswriter for the Los Angeles Tribune who was passionate about challenging the status quo of the day. Harding and other writers put on the pressure, ultimately leading the Rams to sign Black athletes as a part of their deal to play in the Coliseum.

Kenny Washington and his UCLA teammate Woody Strode were two of the four Black players to break the color barrier and play for the NFL in the modern era. This was a year before Jackie Robinson — another UCLA star — would integrate Major League Baseball.

New study shows Earth may be past the ‘safe operating space’ for humanity

  • The planetary boundaries theory — the concept that the Earth has an operating system that is being destabilized by humanity, which is endangering the planet’s habitability — has been updated in a new study published in Science Advances.
  • The updated framework now provides clear thresholds for each of the nine planetary boundaries, including three whose thresholds were previously unquantified: the boundaries for novel entities (various forms of pollution), atmospheric aerosol loading, and the biosphere.
  • These nine quantified boundaries act like guardrails beyond which humanity cannot push without causing great risk to Earth’s operating systems and life as we know it.
  • The authors report that six of the nine boundaries have already been breached and call the updated framework a “wake-up call” to humanity. But they also suggest that if action is taken promptly, things can be done to bring Earth’s life support system back into balance.
