Eggelston said pharmacies should be required to regulate the sale of loperamide-containing products in the same way they restrict other abused over-the-counter medications like pseudoephedrine, or Sudafed.

MAIDUGURI, Nigeria (AP) — Nigeria's Chief Justice is scheduled to be arraigned at the Code of Conduct Tribunal in Abuja on charges of failing to declare his assets and for holding foreign bank accounts.
The federal government ordered Justice Walter Samuel Nkanu Onnoghen to immediately vacate his office as head of the country's judiciary Saturday.
The Chief Justice has a key role in resolving election disputes and Nigeria will vote for a new president in February. This is the first time a Nigerian Chief Justice is standing trial.
On Monday a team of 94 lawyers arrived at the tribunal to defend Onnoghen, whose appointment had suffered unprecedented delay by President Muhammadu Buhari.
The Coalition of Niger Delta Agitators argues that Onnoghen is being wrongly prosecuted and threatened to resume attacks on oil wells.
MANCHESTER UNITED feel they have a 'real chance' of signing Real Madrid star Gareth Bale this summer, according to reports.
The Real Madrid forward's future has been thrown into doubt in recent months following a frustrating season.
Despite winning the Champions League and La Liga last term, Bale struggled with injury and endured the wrath of Madrid fans for some of his displays.
With Madrid also pursuing a deal for Monaco star Kylian Mbappe, Bale's position in the Spanish capital is under threat.
And it seems United are willing to offer him a way out should the Welshman decide to return to the Premier League.
According to the Independent, United sources say the club feel they have a 'real chance' of bringing him to Old Trafford during the transfer window.
The report suggests United's desire to land a player of Bale's calibre may even be the reason that their pursuit of Inter Milan's Ivan Perisic has stalled.
United and Interhave been in talks for months over his transfer but the Red Devils are reluctant to meet Inter's £48million valuation.
The Manchester outfit would have no problem forking out the cash needed to secure Bale and they could be waiting to see if Mbappe's seemingly impending arrival at the Bernabeu has an impact on the 28-year-old's future.
Where could Gareth Bale go next?
The report adds the only club Bale would want to go to if he left Madrid would be United.
Bale did deal United a blow recently though by insisting he is happy at Madrid.
He said: "I can still play football very well, when I am at the maximum I will give the best again, I signed a long contract in Madrid and I am happy in this club.
"I am sure this is going to be a great season. My plan is to score goals here."

KOLO TOURE is determined to force Liverpool into a U-turn over his future and hand him another contract extension.
The Ivory Coast defender is out of contract at the end of the season and manager Jurgen Klopp has already sealed a deal for Schalke's Joel Matip, who will arrive at Anfield on a free transfer in the summer.
The deal places further doubt against Toure, who had not been offered a new contract, although the 34-year-old has vowed to fight on.
"I am a fighter," said Toure. "I'm in the team at the moment and I am showing every game that I'm still here. It doesn't matter what other people say, I have this smile, I'm very happy and I always give 100 per cent for this club. This club is amazing. The fans love me.
There had been interest in him last summer from the MLS and Turkey, while the emergence of the Chinese Super League offers another possible destination.
"I don't want to think about the future yet," he said. "This is a fantastic club. A new manager has come in and we will see what happens. I will enjoy every second at Liverpool.
"I've not had any offers for next season yet. If I keep playing like I am at the moment then I'm sure doors will open."

Priceless Pet Clinic to open at Normandy Park Towne Center this Wednesday!
Starting this Wednesday, Sept. 18, there will be a new choice for people seeking veterinary care for their pet companions in the area – Priceless Pet Clinic will open in the Normandy Park Towne Center!
Priceless Pet Clinic is a family owned and operated veterinary clinic, meeting routine, urgent, and emergency needs of pets in the Des Moines, SeaTac, Normandy Park and Burien area.
“We developed Priceless Pet Clinic because we don’t believe that you need to choose between high quality care and saving money when it comes to your pet’s health.” Dr. Miles said. “Our purpose is to facilitate pet owners in taking an active role in their pets’ care, and to provide a range of options to fit the owner’s ...
This collaborative atmosphere is sure to be embraced by our readers, whom we know are passionate about their pets!
Though new to owning their own business, this husband and wife team has devoted most of their lives to delivering high quality veterinary care. Their practice is truly a vocation – not just a profit-center. Drs. Patrick and Lee Miles met in veterinary school, both graduating from Virginia-Maryland Regional College of V...
Dr. Patrick Miles has worked in the veterinary emergency field for over 14 years. He has worked for Animal Critical Care and Emergency Services in both the Seattle and Renton locations over the last seven years. While with ACCES, Dr. Miles worked alongside a number of veterinary specialists in providing an incredible l...
Dr. Lee Miles has extensive experience working in high volume, fast-paced day practices. She found working in that environment to be a very rewarding experience, as she was often able to help people who otherwise may not have been able to provide for even the most basic care of their pet.
Each of their professional experiences combines to allow for this unique practice concept. Provide affordable care, through high volume with extensive experience in both day and specialty practice.
Priceless Pet Clinic will be open 6 days a week, 7:00 am – 5:00 pm, Monday through Saturday. No appointment necessary.

Bridlington Town boss Curtis Woodhouse was delighted with his side's second-half performance in the 4-2 East Riding FA Senior Cup final win against Hull City.
The former Sheffield United midfielder said: "I am delighted to get one in the cabinet and I am delighted with the performance.
"I think in the second half we were excellent, though in the first half we were very poor. I came in at half-time and said to the lads that has not really been an acceptable performance, miles off what I expected and we looked a little bit overawed by it all really.
"I said we have to go out and improve and I thought in the second half we were outstanding. For the lads to go 1-0 down and then get it back to 1-1 and then go 2-1 down it is easy to start feeling sorry for yourselves, especially the way we went 2-1 down as we have hit the bar from a corner and they have come out and b...
The Seasiders chief added: "Fortunately when that second one went in for us we ran riot, we ran all over them. We wanted it more, tackled harder, won every header and every 50/50.
"Hull City are a full-time team and we've run them into the ground. Our lads looked fitter, stronger and they wanted it more. I'm delighted for the boys that have gone out there and put everything in. Sometimes in life you get what you deserve and we got what we deserved."
Woodhouse was very unhappy with an early decision by the referee, saying: "How we didn't get a penalty in the first minute I will never know, the referee, to be fair to him, did come up after and apologised and said it was a penalty, so you've got to respect him for that.
"The pitch wasn't great at all it was bobbly and that's being kind, speaking to the Hull City staff they weren't really used to anything like that so it was more difficult for them than us, playing in the NCE League we're used to pitches like this, so we knew how to play it a little bit better.
"We just put the ball in better areas, Brett Agnew was outstanding up front he was the best player on the pitch and their centre-halves couldn't handle him, he murdered them."
The Town manager was rocked by the knee injury which forced Louis Kirk off the pitch in the final.
"I am devastated for him as in the first half he was our best player, he got every second ball and his work ethic was fantastic."
Woodhouse praised Town chairman Pete Smurthwaite after the final, saying: "We are delighted for Pete as he puts so much into the football club, it's nice to reward for him with some silverware so he'll be buzzing.
"We've got to finish it off now an do the double next week."
The Seasiders face Penistone Church On Wednesday in the NCE League Cup final at Bramall Lane.
The game kicks off at 7.30pm, with admission for adults £5 and concessions £3.
Boswell’s previous release is “Counting Eyes,” and both of her albums are available on iTunes, Spotify and Bandcamp, and both feature Boswell’s original songs.
Boswell is a singer-songwriter for sure, but she’s also a classically trained guitarist, and it would be hard to find someone who can pick a guitar more beautifully than her. “Fall Away” has Boswell’s signature sound, which for this album includes contributions from local accordion player Denise Strayer, drummer Josh T...
When I listened to “Fall Away” I was immediately taken by the guitar playing. I don’t know what it is, but Boswell manages to pick in patterns I haven’t heard before, and they frequently combine with dancing drum beats, upright bass and even sometimes a full band sound with Strayer, Troupe and Farmer in the mix.
The title track stands out in particular, as it’s a crossover sound between Boswell’s innovative finger-picking and some old time tones. When she sings, she sings about love, encounters and missing people and attachments that emanate throughout the songs, and it’s all spun together right here in State College..
Touring, recording, promoting and all business side, music is ultimately an endeavor of the heart for Boswell, which is why she’s so gifted and prolific. It’s not just that she has talent. She reveals her heart space through her music, and that’s what her music is about — a journey through her lovely, ancient heart.
FLINT, MI -- Otrude Moyo recalls a University of Michigan-Flint student going an entire week without food after being listed as ineligible to get food from local pantries due to her younger age.
Moyo, chair of the social work department at UM-Flint, knew this was unacceptable. She started a group of students that began to take action. Four years later, more than 30 students have helped open a food pantry accessible to students at the downtown Flint campus.
More than 50 people gathered to witness the grand opening of the pantry Tuesday, April 16 at its third floor location at the University Center, 400 Mill St. in Flint. The pantry was named the "Wolverine Food Den," through popular vote on a campus-wide contest.
In 2015, social work students surveyed 182 students about food insecurity. The results of the survey showed 58 percent either skipped or missed a meal each day because of the lack of food availability. That’s when the idea for this pantry was born.
UM-Flint’s Chancellor Sue Borrego said this pantry was born from an never-faltered attitude to see it through to fruition – for students, by students.
The pantry was initially started as an undergraduate final project, and four years later has become a reality, she said.
Multiple student organizations and social work clubs continue to collaborate to make this possible, including intern assignments and coordinating volunteers and food distribution.
The pantry will be open 16 hours per week during the fall and winter terms, and hours will be adjusted based on need.
The pantry is open to all registered students. Students in need can visit the pantry as many times as needed.
