DRUGS ON TAP

The EPA does not test for pharmaceuticals in drinking water. Water running into streams then poisons animals. Then people eat the animals.

I have a ceramic water filter . Does anyone know if these things can be filtered out . I know that fluoride , for instance , needs a special filter .

This has been going on for decades & only getting worse with an aging population on a lot of meds. The problem is that these chemicals do not breakdown beyond their manufactured molecular structure before returning back into our water supply & becoming part of the ecosystem - & us.
