#507 Open Lines

Despite dermatologists’ dire warnings about the dangers of sun exposure, millions of folks soak up the rays pool side, at the beach and in tanning parlors. Dermatologist Steve Feldman will tell us why tanning might be psychologically “addictive.” We will also learn why dextromethorphan (the DM in so many OTC cough medicines) is not very effective for children and what the dangers can be. We will find out why the FDA just approved Botox for underarm sweating and get an update on the latest research about Alzheimer’s disease. The lines will also be open for questions about prescription drugs, OTC medicines, dietary supplements and home remedies.
