Back in the day it used to be called dog food, but as Americans we share the love and eat what our dogs eat. Buying American is no guarantee of wholesomeness, just a better chance that there will be less contamination depending on FDA inspection schedules. "Reading" the label before you buy is more important. If the label (as many made in China dog treats say) says to wash and sanitize your hands after handling the treats--"there is something WRONG with the treats."

I bought them for my kid, and one year they disappeared. I never knew why until now. I can't believe they were banned over "non-nutritive"objects embedded in the middle of the (hollow!) egg. There's lots of food in the US that isn't nutritive--starting with pink slime and meat glue. All FDA approved, of course.

It's about a shortage of common, generic drugs--which don't make money for the manufacturers. "...they struggle to deal with a shortage of drug supplies created by manufacturing delays and industry changes." I know it's bad karma, but I sincerely hope that the people who decided the bottom line and manufacturing shifts toward the money-makers end up needing the very drugs they no longer focus on. Even a CEO and corporate board have heart attacks, allergic reactions and seizures.

IVIG is expensive. I'm not sure they're looking for a way to make it cheaper for the patient.

Not just for Alzheimer's. And the more you weigh, the more it costs--and the less it works (so they have to up your dosage) the more it costs, and then...it simply stops working. And you need the other, newer, even "more" expensive biologicals.
