Menopause drug/Dog labs

 

Urge Warner-Lambert to End Merger With American Home Products

 

 

 

Executives at American Home Products (AHP) and Warner-Lambert have announced a $70 billion merger agreement to form American Warner, the world's largest drugmaker. Now, though, another drug company, Pfizer Inc., is trying to step in and break up the agreement with its own offer to join Warner-Lambert.

American Home Products produces the menopause drug Premarin, which is made from the urine of pregnant horses and results in the suffering and deaths of tens of thousands of mares and their foals every year.

Let Warner-Lambert know that merging with AHP comes with a price--animal suffering! Encourage the company to dump AHP. Write to:

End CU Dog Labs

 

 

 

The University of Colorado's School of Medicine is one of the last remaining medical schools in the nation that uses live dogs to teach human anatomy. This semester alone, at least 75 dogs will be cut open, alive, at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center under the guise of teaching medical students human physiology. Most of the leading medical schools in the nation, such as Harvard, Yale, Stanford, and Columbia have eliminated animal labs from their curriculum. Instead, these schools use educational computer software, videos, and observations of human surgeries to teach their medical students about human anatomy.

Rocky Mountain Animal Defense has started a letter-writing campaign to encourage the University of Colorado's medical school to take its place among the leading medical schools in the nation and eliminate the dog lab in favor of more humane, less expensive, and more effective methods of teaching students about human anatomy.
