Norforms redirect

Why does Norforms (OTC vaginal deodorant suppository product) redirect here? Ummel (talk) 02:14, 14 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

http://www.drugbank.ca/drugs/DB00353 strangely claims that Norform contains methylergometrine. I've changed the redirect to Benzethonium chloride, which seems to be the true active ingredient ([1]). Thanks for pointing this out! --ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 07:03, 14 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

While I was looking around I saw that a few sites had listed it as a brand/formulation of methylergonovine, but most of them pointed back to the drugbank.ca link. Micromedex/Martindale's seems to only list the vaginal deodorant (Benzethonium chloride), and not methylergonovine maleate. It must be some sort of error on drugbank.ca's part, unless it is an old or foreign brand name/formulation. Thanks for the quick action! Ummel (talk) 02:35, 22 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
