The FDA ban on CFC inhalers negatively impacts tens of millions of Americans while providing no environmental benefit. The ban is due to the UN Montreal Protocol.
There is no evidence whatsoever that trivial amounts of CFC inhaler emissions harm the ozone layer, increase UV-B ground radiation or increase skin cancer rates.
Replacement HFA inhalers are more expensive and less effective, detracting from quality of life and contributing to early death. There's also evidence HFAs are more harmful to the environment than CFCs.
Not all medications have been replaced with HFA versions, leaving some patients with no alternatives.
Stop allowing UN policies to dictate the quality of life for Americans. Restore the option of inexpensive, effective CFC inhalers to the people of the United States.
