PRESCRIPTION DRUGS ARE THE THIRD LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH AFTER HEART
DISEASE AND CANCER. In his latest ground-breaking book, Peter C
Gotzsche exposes the pharmaceutical industries and their charade of
fraudulent behaviour, both in research and marketing where the
morally repugnant disregard for human lives is the norm. He
convincingly draws close comparisons with the tobacco
conglomerates, revealing the extraordinary truth behind efforts to
confuse and distract the public and their politicians. The book
addresses, in evidence-based detail, an extraordinary system
failure caused by widespread crime, corruption, bribery and
impotent drug regulation in need of radical reforms. "The main
reason we take so many drugs is that drug companies don't sell
drugs, they sell lies about drugs. This is what makes drugs so
different from anything else in life...Virtually everything we know
about drugs is what the companies have chosen to tell us and our
doctors...the reason patients trust their medicine is that they
extrapolate the trust they have in their doctors into the medicines
they prescribe. The patients don't realise that, although their
doctors may know a lot about diseases and human physiology and
psychology, they know very, very little about drugs that hasn't
been carefully concocted and dressed up by the drug industry...If
you don't think the system is out of control, please email me and
explain why drugs are the third leading cause of death...If such a
hugely lethal epidemic had been caused by a new bacterium or a
virus, or even one-hundredth of it, we would have done everything
we could to get it under control." FROM THE INTRODUCTION
