Microdose Chocolate , May Cause Seizures, FDA Warns.
The FDA says that several people in
four states have gotten sick after eating Diamond Shruumz chocolate bars.
Severe symptoms experienced by the victims include "seizures, central nervous system depression, agitation, abnormal heart rates, hyper/hypotension, nausea and vomiting," CBS News reports. .
The chocolate, which is sold across the country, landed six of the eight victims in the hospital. .
The company's website says that the chocolate
is manufactured with a "primo proprietary blend
of nootropic and functional mushrooms.".

keep their kids away from the chocolate
which is marketed as candy. .
Parents and caregivers should consider
discussing the information in this
advisory with their children and take
extra care to avoid this product being
consumed by younger people. , FDA, via statement.

Supreme Court Upholds , FDA Regulation on Popular , Abortion Drug Mifepristone.
On June 13, the Supreme Court ruled against a group of
doctors who challenged the Food and Drug Administration's
(FDA) regulations on the abortion pill mifepristone.
CBS reports that the case once again highlighted
abortion access following the conservative
majority decision to overturn Roe v. Wade in 2022.
The court ruled unanimously that the group of
anti-abortion rights doctors and medical associations
lacked the legal right to challenge the FDA. .
However, the court also did not address
whether the FDA's decision to relax the
rules for mifepristone's use were lawful. .
The latest ruling was authored
by Justice Brett Kavanaugh. .
Under Article III of the Constitution,
a plaintiff's desire to make a drug
less available for others does
not establish standing to sue. , Justice Brett Kavanaugh writing for the court, via CBS.
Nor do the plaintiffs' other
standing theories suffice.
Therefore, the plaintiffs lack
standing to challenge FDA's actions, Justice Brett Kavanaugh writing for the court, via CBS.
CBS reports that the ruling does not impact other
challenges to the FDA's standing on mifepristone,
while preserving access to the popular abortion medication.
In 2016 and 2021, the FDA took steps to widen access
to mifepristone, which has been taken by over
5 million patients since first being approved in 2000.
Those steps included allowing the drug to be taken up to 10
weeks into a pregnancy, reducing the number of in-person
doctor visits and permitting it to be sold through the mail.
