If you haven't yet sent your objections to the FDA, (Submit written
comments to the Dockets Management Branch (HFA-305), Food and Drug
Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, rm. 1061, Rockville, MD 20852.
Requests and comments should be identified with the docket number found
in brackets in the heading of this document.)
please do so, so that Stokes Pharmacy will not be hampered in their
mailing of gf prescriptions to customers not residing in New Jersey.
Be sure to say why you are concerned about this issue and why you
need special prescription medication not available to you locally.

Comments could also be sent to your Congressional Representatives and
Senators, so that they know how much this concerns their constituents.

If you missed my first post on FDA - Docket No. 98N-1265, check out
