Amazon is being slammed for selling questionable products to treat a variety of ailments from varicose veins to venereal disease.
The Daily Mail reported that consumers are honing in on the sale of one product in particular on Amazon, and that is something called medorrhinium which is made with the “urethral discharge from men infected with gonorrhea” and the saliva of rabid dogs which was all categorized under the heading of homeopathy.
Amazon customers in the United States and the U.K. can purchase these pills which are heavily diluted and usually in a lactase base which melts under the tongue. Amazon stated that it had removed several “bizarre” products that had been flagged, but would not say which products and how many had previously been sold on the site.
The Daily Mail identified a number of products claiming to be medorrhinum which the U.S.-based National Center for Homeopathy says it can treat asthma, epilepsy, warts, period pain, and psoriasis.
