FDA demonstrates federal priorities

The Food and Drug Administration is aware of the dangers of nausea:

Severe vomiting can be life threatening and require intravenous fluids and hospitalization.

So it’s good to know that the FDA is there to make sure that the necessary medicine is available to… dogs.

Good news, dog owners: There’s a new drug to keep Fido from vomiting all over your living room or car. On Wednesday, the Food and Drug Administration approved the drug, Cerenia, to treat or prevent vomiting resulting from motion sickness and other causes.

Of course if you’re a human suffering from nausea due to cancer treatments, the FDA prefers that you die.
