FFF는 1950년대 후반부터 1960년대까지 임산부들의 입덧 방지용으로 판매된 약으로 이를 복용한 임산부들이 기형아들을 양산하자 사용이 금지됐다가 최근에는 다발성 골수종 치료제로 쓰이고 있다.
FFF was sold from the late 1950s to the 1960s to prevent morning sickness in pregnant women. It was banned after pregnant women who took it produced a large number of deformed children. However, it has recently been used to treat multiple myeloma.
