Toxic effects of iodide from doses of this order of magnitude given over relatively short periods of time are extremely unlikely. We know from clinical experience that toxic effects of iodide are not observed with doses of 100 mg of iodide per day given to children over a course of years. Iodide goiter has been observed to occur only following daily does of several hundred milligrams of iodide administered for years, a fact which indicates that it is desirable to have a ceiling on the doses used for prophylactic purposes...

At that point, the woman is given three aspirin-like RU 486 tablets, each containing 200 mg of the drug. After swallowing the pills, she again goes home...
Except in the rare instance where the RU 486 is enough to induce a quick abortion, the woman must take two 200-mg Cytotec pills within the next 48 hours. Because the timing is critical and doctors want to monitor the effects of this contraction-inducing drug, women are required to return to the clinic.

...Barclays Bank charged into the Spanish market with interest-bearing accounts, forcing local banks to follow suit. The single market influences food prices (bananas in Germany will be one-third more expensive thanks to new E.C.-imposed tariffs on South American imports), health (no cigarettes with more than 15 mg of tar can be sold in the Community, forcing France to lighten up its legendary Gauloises), and even noise (all lawn mowers must adhere to the same decibel regulations...
