I want to be… one less

I want to be one less guinea pig for the drug companies.

Fact: more girls have died or become seriously ill from Gardasil injections than were projected to die from cervical cancer.  Difference: We’re talking healthy 12-16 year old girls, as opposed to 55+ women with cervical cancer.

Fact:  The New England Journal of Medicine reviewed 74 FDA-reviewed studies of 12 antidepressants, and found that, of the 37 negative studies, 22 were never published and 11 of the remaining 15 were spun as “positive results”.

    “The authors of the NEJM article – led by former FDA medical reviewer
Dr. Erick H. Turner – obtained 74 FDA-reviewed studies of 12 commonly
prescribed antidepressants.
Of these studies, 37 reported positive results and 37 reported negative
results. Upon review, the researchers found that while only one of the
37 positive studies escaped publication, a full 22 of the 37 negative
studies never saw print. Even more astounding was the fact that of the
15 published negative studies, 11 of them were spun by the publishing
journal in a way that, according to Dr. Turner and his team, conveyed a
positive outcome.”  see this article

Fact:  Most psychiatric drugs have more damaging “side” effects than the “diseases” they are supposed to be treating.  Even when PBS does a documentary on children being medicated, they referred to tardive dyskinesia, a serious and usually permanent disorder, as “tics”.

Fact:  Antidepressants cause more suicidal thoughts than they relieve.  In England, only Prozac is allowed to be used in children, of a wide pharmacology of antidepressants, and there are lawsuits ongoing to prohibit THAT use.  When a child (or young person, or adult) dies (or goes on a killing rampage), the drug companies blame the individual, but time after time the individual was found to be peaceful prior to taking these harmful “medications”.
