Most importantly there is no pregnancy warning and aspartame in original studies caused neural tube defects, spina bifida and cleft palate for starters. The studies were sealed from the public through a deal by G. D. Searle and the FDA. Autism is rampant. The last chapter discussing this issue in "While Science Sleeps: A Sweetener Kills" is free on www.whilesciencesleeps.com When Jerome Bressler involved in the aspartame investigation retired from FDA he asked help in finding the FDA information and studies about this situation sealed from his report. It has now been added back and you will see from FDA records they confess aspartame causes birth defects: .mpwhi.com/complete_bressler_report.pdf
The Opioid Situation: Aspartame can react violently with opioids,. All hospital patients should be asked if they are using aspartame before being given opioids. Obviously aspartame has a lot to do with these deaths. It may not be an overdose. They may simply be using aspartame and death is the result of the interaction.
Michael Jackson a former Diet Pepsi spokesman is a classic example. He also had lupus, which is big time precipitated by aspartame. James Bowen, M.D. wrote: " The ability of methyl alcohol/formaldehyde to create antigenicity, especially as combined in aspartame molecules is so great as to cause severe autoimmune reactions to the tissues deformed by formaldehyde polymerization, adduct formation. The immune system turns against the victim's tissues: Lupus." Michael Jackson used Diet Pepsi and it was a no-brainer that in the end death could happen from interaction.
If the victim goes to a physician he may be prescribed Maxalt. The pharmaceutical company has been alerted that aspartame causes headache and they have added it as an ingredient. They refuse to remove it so a study was done and it showed Maxalt made headaches worse. They refused. A study was done showing using Maxalt makes the patient worse and they still refuse to remove it.
This form has been prepared by Mission Possible World Health Intl, www.mpwhi.com Mission Possible is non-profit and a global volunteer force in over 40 countries educating the public that aspartame is a chemical poison and working to have it removed from the public. It has no place in a hospital to make the patient worse, and may have brought him to the ER because of it.

I. INTERFERENCE WITH DRUG ACTION
1. The author's clinical observations indicate that aspartame products can alter the action of important drugs. They include coumarin (Coumadin ), phenytoin (Dilantin), antidepressants, other psychotropic agents, propranolol (Inderal), methyldopa (Aldomet), thyroxine (Synthroid), and insulin (Chapter XIII). This phenomenon is illustrated in many case reports presented in other sections.
It is also likely that some herbs interact with aspartame. Noting that numerous herb-drug interactions, Fugh-Berman (2000) stated, "Health care practitioners should caution patients against mixing herbs and pharmaceutical drugs."
General Considerations
Aspartame may either reduce or potentiate drug action by various mechanisms. A few of the possibilities are listed
Alteration of the blood proteins to which drugs attach.
Alteration of drug receptors on cell membranes.
Changes in the sites at which impulses are transmitted along nerves and to muscle.
Metabolic abnormalities in the elderly that are known to enhance their vulnerability to drug reactions (Weber 1986).This problem increases in the case of persons taking multiple drugs ("polypharmacy") prescribed by several physicians.
Interference with drug action by amino acids and protein. An example is the erratic therapeutic effects when patients with parkinsonism who were controlled on levodopa began to use aspartame products (Chapter VI-J). The antagonism if levodopa by dietary protein presumably reflects impaired transport from serum across the blood-brain barrier by neutral amino acids (Pincus 1986).
