(Scott Township, PA) A wellness counselor from the Pittsburgh area was recently charged by the U.S. Attorney’s Office with mislabeling medication meant for cows and giving it to her weight-loss patients. Authorities confirm that the woman who was charged, Nicole Millen, who is not a licensed medical professional, operated two weight loss clinics in the area of Pittsburgh: Renu Medical and Weight Loss and Choice Restorative Medicine. Court documents allege that between February of 2022 and May of 2023, Millen prescribed her patients the drug Chorulon, which is used to treat cystic ovaries in cows and is not approved to be used by humans. Millen and her employees allegedly ordered Chorulon from an Illinois retailer, mixed it with a dilutant, put it in unlabeled syringes, and gave it to customers. Investigators state that Millen told her patients that Chorulon contains the same active ingredient as some drugs that are approved for human use and she told them that is what they were taking. Investigators have not stated how many people may been impacted by Chorulon or if it caused any medical complications. An indication from court records confirms that Millen will waive arraignment and plead guilty to “causing a drug to be misbranded after shipment” on November 18th, 2025.

(Pittsburgh, PA) Sunday, November 2nd is when daylight-saving time in 2025 ends, and the American Red Cross of Greater Pennsylvania is encouraging Pennsylvanians to test their smoke alarms to make sure their devices are working as they turn their clocks back. According to a release from the American Red Cross of Greater Pennsylvania, here are some tips for fire safety and smoke alarms and information for more assistance for either installing smoke alarms or if you cannot afford one:

Smoke Alarms

When turning your clocks back this weekend, test your smoke alarms and replace the batteries if needed. Visit redcross.org/fire by clicking here for more information, which includes an escape plan to create and practice with your family, or download the free Red Cross Emergency app by searching “American Red Cross” in app stores.

• Install smoke alarms on every level of your home, including inside and outside bedrooms and sleeping areas.
• Replace smoke alarms that are 10 years or older. Components such as sensors can become less sensitive over time. Follow your alarm’s manufacturer instructions.
• Practice your two-minute home fire escape plan. Make sure everyone in your household can get out in less than two minutes — the amount of time you may have to escape a burning home before it’s too late.
• Include at least two ways to get out of every room and select a meeting spot at a safe distance away from your home, such as your neighbor’s home or a landmark like a specific tree in your front yard, where everyone can meet.

If You Need Help

• If you cannot afford to purchase smoke alarms or are physically unable to install one, the Red Cross may be able to help. Visit SoundTheAlarm.org/GreaterPA by clicking here for more information.

(Pittsburgh, PA) The end of Daylight Saving Time in 2025 is on Sunday, Novmber 2nd and motorists will receive challenges that could impact the safety of pedestrians even with the extra hour of sleep. A report from the National Sleep Foundation confirms that drivers that are sleep-deprived cause over 6,400 deaths and 50,000 debilitating injuries on American roadways each year. According to a release from AAA East Central, they recommend some tips for both motorists and pedestrians to prepare for potential problems associated with changes in sleep patterns, brighter morning commutes, and darker evening commutes:

Tips for motorists:

• Get plenty of rest. Symptoms of drowsy driving can include having trouble keeping your eyes open, drifting from lanes, or not remembering the last few miles driven.
• Watch for deer. November and December are peak months for deer-vehicle collisions. Don’t forget – your clock has changed, but theirs has not.
• Get some shades. Wear high-quality sunglasses and adjust the car’s sun visors as needed to avoid glare in the morning.
• Change driving habits. Reduce speeds and increase following distances, especially in more populated areas.
• Ditch the distractions. This can include cell phones, infotainment systems, or clocks that need to be turned back an hour.
• Use the headlights. This can make you more visible to pedestrians in the morning and evening.
• Remember to yield. Pedestrians have the right of way in crosswalks. Also, don’t pass vehicles stopped at crosswalks. Remember to yield the right of way to pedestrians in crosswalks.

Tips for pedestrians:

• Cross only at intersections or crosswalks. Look left, right and left again and only cross when it is clear. Do not jaywalk or cross between parked cars.
• Use the sidewalk. If you have to walk on the road, be sure to walk facing traffic.
• Dress brightly. Wear bright or reflective clothing if you are walking or biking near traffic at night. Consider carrying a flashlight.
• Avoid distracted walking. This includes looking at your phone, wearing headphones, or listening to music.
• Bike smartly. Bicycle lights are a must-have item for safe night riding, especially during the winter months when it gets darker earlier.
