GENERAL
My name is Janica McCool and I have been taking bio-identical hormones for the past 5 years. Taking bio-identical hormones have been a life- saver to me. Prior to that I took synthetic hormones that caused me many complications. I consult with my physician, who prescribes bio- identical hormones specifically

for me, and my pharmacist prepares them. Without this medication, I would not enjoy the quality of life that I currently have today.

The benefit of BHRT is that it is designed for me and I am concerned that Wyeth?s petition (Docket # 2005P-0411) would limit the ability of my physician and pharmacist to keep prescribing and preparing these individualized doses for me. The FDA should reject Wyeth?s petition.

Sincerely,
Janica McCool
