KINETICO WATER TREATMENT SYSTEMS CAN REDUCE TRACE PHARMACEUTICALS IN DRINKING WATER

 

NEWBURY, Ohio, (March 18, 2008)—Consumers who are concerned about the effects of trace pharmaceuticals can rest easier knowing that Kinetico’s drinking water treatment systems with Reverse Osmosis (RO) can reduce the amount of trace pharmaceuticals in drinking water.

 

A recent CBS Evening News segment listed 26 trace pharmaceuticals found in United States drinking water supplies. These pharmaceuticals include:

 

 

Acetaminophen Clofibric Acid Estradiol

Prednisone

Amoxicillin Codeine Estrone Roxithromycin
Azithromycin Cotinine Fluoxetine Sulfamethoxazole
Caffeine Dehydronifedipine Ibuprofen Sulfathiozole
Carbadox Diclofenac Meprobamate Tetracycline
Carbamazepine Diphenhydramine Naproxen Tylosin

 

 

Phenytoin Virginiamycin

 

While no water treatment system can claim to eliminate all trace pharmaceuticals in drinking water, Kinetico drinking water systems with Reverse Osmosis technology are capable of reducing molecular compounds larger than 100 g/mol.

 

“ Kinetico’s combined water treatment technologies are among the best solutions on the market,” says Shamus Hurley, president of Kinetico Incorporated. RO filtration paired with Kinetico’s additional patented contaminant reducing treatments, including the MACguard® filter, offer even greater protection and help consumers achieve a higher level of protection than RO alone.
