Hi all

I too got the lanolin sample, so I called the company to express  my concern
over getting a expired tube that has the standard otc warning -- external
use/ keep out of reach of children. and the instructions to use it on moms
breast and baby's bottom.

I also had her fax me every piece of documentation on why pestiside residues
& sensitivity would not be a significant problem with their product. (slim to
be sure) as i expected.

Sue H can you fax me your company's safety documentation info, I lent mine
out and of course it was never returned (810) 977-9535.

Also if a person from Medela (i know there is someone on lactnet) would do
the same I & my mom's would appreciate the most up to date and accurate info
for comparision.

In my local market the drug store chain (Arbor) that I work for (200 stores
strong) now stocks L----oh and the local Target stocks Pr--l-n 100.  I would
really hate to see either of these very large companies get taken in by this
latest promotion by a generic company and switch to a cheaper product that is
going to cause problems.

I plan to in the near future do another skin patch test for allergic rxn on
all the lanolin products I can get my hands on (a test just like you would do
if you are allergic to hair dye).  In the past i have had some very
interesting results / I am sensitive to just about everything (except 2
products).

By the way I asked who sold this company my address and all of yours and she
stated LLL did.  Just a side note LLL (yes, i am still a card carrying member
- since 1987) had a sponsored credit card and they sold my name to a adult
sex toy company,  I was not very happy then, nor am I happy  now.  I will be
contacting LLL international in the am to get my name off their mailing sales
list ASAP.


Sorry that this is so long.  But I just had to vent.
