WHY WE SHOULD BAR PREGNANT MARE'S URINE IN DRUGS
Every year, doctors prescribe hormone replacement
therapy (HRT)—also referred to as menopausal hormone therapy—to
hundreds of thousands of women experiencing menopausal symptoms. One of
the most widely prescribed drugs for HRT is made from animal waste. The
drug is Premarin, an estrogen-therapy drug manufactured by Wyeth
Pharmaceuticals, which also produces Prempro, an estrogen/progestin
combination. Both drugs contain horse urine, specifically pregnant mare
urine (PMU). Not only has this form of HRT proved to be dangerous to
humans, but horses raised for their urine are kept confined and
pregnant and their foals often end up in the slaughterhouse.
FACT
For every 150 women who stop taking Premarin, one mare is spared from
the “pee line” and seven or eight “byproduct” foals will not be
slaughtered for their meat.
"We are not spiritually unconnected from the drugs we take,
or from the pain and suffering that goes into their making."
