Dear Sir or Madam:

I have been taking Bio-Identical Hormone for a year now. I have done considerable research on this form of hormone replacement and am very satisfied that this is the absolute best form of HRT to be on. Unlike the typical pharmaceutical companies that essentially manufacture a one size fits all pill, my Bio-Identical Hormones are tailored to meet my specific needs. They are prescribed by a licensed physician and compounded by a licensed pharmacist. In addition, I will not take a drug that is not as natural as possible which is why I prefer Bio-Identical Hormones.

I find it reprehensible that Wyeth Pharmaceuticals is using their lobbying clout to try to take away a fundamental right and freedom that I have as a citizen of the United States. It is just another example of big business trying to stifle competition so they can force their drugs on consumers.

As a concerned consumer, I am opposed to Wyett's petition (docket #2005P-0411) which would limit my physician and pharmacist from formulating the individualized dosage that I need for my best health. I strongly urge the FDA to reject Wyett's petition!

Sincerely,
