Non-notable medicament. Only one study ever performed. No secondary sources talking about its importance, etc. No sources to write an article that goes beyond what Novartis claims for their product. Enric Naval (talk) 17:59, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete True, zinc sulphate has effects on its own. Given the safety concern of Bourne and others it's a bad idea for wikipedia to cover a drug that hasn't been tested for negative effects. The one thing an external review of german wikipedia's drug coverage complained about was the lack of listing of adverse effects I remember. Narayanese (talk) 21:33, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
