Pharmaceuticals NYC Water

leave a comment »

Great. Along the lines of my earlier post about pesticides and perchlorate in everyday foods, here we read about traces of pharmaceuticals in our drinking water.

Though barely measurable, these pharmaceuticals are present in a variety worthy of a medicine cabinet: drugs for aches, infections, seizures and high blood pressure; hormones for menopause; the active ingredient in a popular sedative; and caffeine — all bound for the city that never sleeps.
