I believe that the link is between the makers of Reglan and the FDA, with
the urging of the formula companies. It is certainly no coincidence that
this action came this week.

The makers of Motillium, Janssen, tried for 14 years to get the drug past
the FDA and the makers of Reglan (which has its own list of serious side
effects, especially for use beyond a few weeks) blocked it (on the side)
each time they tried. They say that it costs them too much to keep
submitting it.

Who makes Reglan?  I checked Hale and Google and couldn't find the
name.  Anyone have a PDR?
