☆ Popular Nasal Decongestant Doesn't Actually Relieve Congestion, FDA Advisers Say

The advisers also told the FDA that studying phenylephrine at higher doses was not an option because it can push blood pressure to dangerous levels. This time, the 16 members of the FDA panel unanimously agreed that current evidence doesn't show a benefit for the drug. Additionally, three larger, rigorously conducted studies published since 2016 showed no difference between phenylephrine medications and placebos for relieving congestion. Those studies were conducted by Merck and Johnson & Johnson and enrolled hundreds of patients. Like many other over-the-counter ingredients, phenylephrine was essentially grandfathered into use during a sweeping FDA review begun in the 1972.

Following the FTX collapse, the founder and former CEO exchanged wild DMs with a Vox reporter. The Twitter direct messages were published by Vox on November 16, days after his cryptocurrency exchange, FTX, collapsed. It was a longtime friend of mine who I stupidly forgot was also a reporter," Bankman-Fried said, adding: "I'm not sure what they thought the capacity was at the time, but it certainly ended up being reported on." During the exchange, Piper also mentioned the conversation the two had over the summer. In a lengthy Twitter thread published shortly after the DMs came out, Bankman-Fried also referred to the Piper as his "friend."
