Keep Your Mood Stabilizers Out of My Toilet

Listen, if you need antibiotics, antidepressants, anti-any-drug-you-need-to-make-it-all-better, I have no problem with that. But, when it ends up flushing through your system via the toilet and into my drinking water, I have to take a stand. That's simply disgusting, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is to blame.

A new report out from the AP find pharmaceuticals in the drinking water supplies of at least 41 million Americans. The study is quite long but it's worth a read.
