Question from KLP
We are looking for dye-free medicines for both adults and children. We would also prefer that they have no artificial sweetners or chemical preservatives. All we have been able to find so far are: dye-free Tylenol, dye-free Motrin and dye-free Benedryl. Do you know of any others or, better yet, a company that specializes in dye-free OTC medicines? Thank you so much for all of your valuable advice. I read your newsletters religiously.

Well, personally I wouldn’t take these drugs with or without dyes. But if you are going to take them, it’s better that they be dye-free. I have no idea where to get these dye-free drugs.
There are what special pharmacies that make up prescriptions without dyes, etc. I remember once a doctor gave me such a prescription and sent me to a local pharmacy that did that. But I don’t remember what they are called. They are probably online somewhere.
My best recommendation to you is to find some natural remedies, such as herbs or homeopathics, to handle the symptoms you need to relieve with these drugs. Or, better yet, find out and handle their root cause and build health in your body.
