new nyc club drug of choice - foxnews - will mtl be next ?
he hottest club drug appears to be one normally used to fix a "burning" problem.
Preparation H, the topical medication used to treat hemorrhoids, reportedly is catching fire as the latest "drug" to hit the New York City club scene.
The topical solution contains a medication called phenylephrine HCL, which shrinks the swollen tissues of hemorrhoids. It works by constricting the nearby blood vessels that surround the area. But the ingredient will shrink other tissue as well.
The method has been hailed on the Internet and has long been used by body builders in need of a quick fix for a problem area prior to competition, as well as women looking to reduce puffiness around their eyes.
But one doctor said the off-label usage of the drug is ludicrous.
"It doesn't even work that well for hemorrhoids," said Dr. Marc Siegel, a FOX News medical contributor. "I find in my practice it has to be combined with hydrocortisone. The notion of phenylephrine is problematic at best. It's a placebo effect."
Siegel told FOXNews.com that the drug can cause uncomfortable side effects such as rashes, as well as more serious side effects such as elevated blood pressure.
New York bouncer, blogger and author Rob Fitzgerald told ABCNews.com that men are slathering up their torsos with the hemorrhoid cream to make themselves look "ripped."
Fitzgerald, who writes the blog Clublife, recently conducted his own research on the phenomenon, interviewing a user, a drugstore worker and a nightclub manager.
thats fkn gross!!
hope it stays is nyc..
gross indeed, but i dont see a link with the club scene...men use it in clubs to look ripped?:S
its retarded, but i dont see why it is gross. They aren't brushing their teeth with it and there isn't any anus in the tube. I checked
Yes this has been one the old locker room tricks used by bodybuilders before the go on stage in the interest to tighten the skin around the abs.
Does it work? well maybe there is a slight cosmetic effect however it's not going to make any difference in someone winning a contest or placing 2nd.
I don't think it's a good idea to use for anything other then what it was intended for.
+ to what Dan just said, just like a topical used to reduce any water left around the areas its placed, i didnt know this actually shrunk cells.. neato
