the upshot:
"The panel was very clear [that the margins of safety defined by the FDA as 'adequate' are in fact, inadequate], but we don't know if the FDA is going to listen," said consumer activist Diana Zuckerman, president of the National Research Center for Women & Families. "If they do, it could be a couple of years before they do anything. The FDA's assessment should have been done right the first time. Now it's going to have to be redone."
