Non-profit Public Citizens Group Ignores the Public

February 20.

Despite adequate time to research and prepare a reply, Public
Citizen, a non-profit group which represents the public interest,
has chosen to ignore communciations from a significant group of
public citizens regarding allegations Public Citizen made in a
petition to the FDA.  The Lotronex Action group represents up to
150,000 successful users of a medication that Public Citizen
petitioned the FDA to withdraw. The group may represent up to 30%
of the population of the United States.

This group has gathered physician and scientific support and sent
a letter to Public Citizen on January 28, requesting
reconsideration of the petition in light of new evidence.

Despite the urgency of the situation to the people involved and
the severity of the effect of IBS on these people has chosen not
to respondIt appears that Public Citizen violated the rights of
at least two people by using information obtained from what they
believed were private internet communications.
