the fda didn't respond to questions about that.y believes that the influence of manufacturers played a part here, that they didn't want to lose sales and that's his opinion obviously as an expert, and the researchers seem to comment on that as well. >> certainly hoping the fda does better oversight there. thank you, anna. >>> ahead, tech companies give at least 40 million americans more control of their personal information. a reminder as we go to break, subscribe to our podcast, "cbs this morning" news on the go. you can hear the day's top stories in less than 20 minutes. you're watching "cbs this morning." come on back. patients want something that works faster for them. why would somebody want to suffer if there is options that they don't need to. i think dentists will want to recommend sensodyne rapid relief because it's clinically proven to work in 3 days. which means for patients that they get relief very fast. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ good lunch? amazin'! toyota. let's go places. it's not getting in my way.? i had enough! joint pain, swellin
