RE: Docket 2005P-0411

Dear Sir or Madam:

I have been taking bioidentical hormones. I consult with my physician, who prescribes bio-identical hormones specifically for me, and my pharmacist prepares them.

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.
