[edit] Ephedrine-containing products still available

As of Jan 2005, Americans can still buy OTC products that contain ephedrine, including many popular decongestants. Maybe the FDA only baned ephedrine in weight loss products. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.72.123.135 (talk) 06:41, 7 January 2005 (UTC)

The wording is "dietary supplements" [1] . I've changed the article to reflect this. Reading between the lines of the FDA ephedra FAQ [2], it seems almost like they knew it would continue to be sold in other forms but didn't wish to draw attention to the fact....
