Clarification. I looked up the activew drug not the "remediator" the
links were for the drug that does the dirty deed to bad cells in the
human. Actually making it clearer that "some" mitigation is necessary..I
just can't find the mitigator pill...

It looks like the "pill" cure is worse than the "disease".

 

Also- it is my understanding that the oxidation of many of these
compounds is quite complex and that every molecule must be monitored as
completely reduced to the "mineralized" level (CO-2 &H2O) or some of the
intermediate by-products can become "DIOXIN" which is much worse than
the parent compound.

Dear Jen Jackson,

 

I'm not sure for Great Britain, but in France, one drug is distributed
with precise instructions to patients for limiting diffusion through
private toilets. In facts, oxidiser should be used and this tablet is
probably something like calcium hypochlorite

This drug is named "Ametycine" in France and it is endovesical
mitomycin.

 

Best regards,

 

Ju Mullot (with help)
