    Default PubMed website

    Sorry if this is a repost--

    A good friend of mine is in med school and he is suspicious of the PV, he kind of rolls his eyes and BTW he's a smoker. He suggested that I search some keyword in Pubmed to see if there was any info. I searched "inhaled vaporized Propylene Glycol" and I got this hit: (nevermind useless)

    I don't understand it, but if anyone might , you might want to check out the site. Just in case no one has gone this route already.

    That url is just the site, not an article. The site has a piece about the efficiency (it seems) in using PG for pulmonary drug delivery, and the rat and monkey studies that have been discussed.

    Also the vapor is toxic to corn and soybean plants.

    Pubmed is very difficult to use and its efficancy I have always found to be unorganized and lacling at best. Unlike Westlaw, there is no orgainization unfortunaltly--Sun

    Oops, sorry for the bad link, I went back and apparently the site has a certain protocol for creating links on their site that I don't understand how to do. I got lots of potentially interesting search hits, but too scientific for me. Everything on PG looked pretty benign, though.

    When I search for glycerine or glycerol, I get weird hits about "nitroglycerine" and such. Just thought the site might be useful for somebody.

    I read the citation and frankly, I didn't see how it applies to us. I think it's more about how to best aerosolize the PG
