Well, having spent as much time as I have on both the pharmaceutical and herbal paths, I believe that there is middle ground to be had.
You can not treat a bullet wound with acupuncture, and you may not need drugs to cure a headache.

Are you sure you're on the right thread?

We already went through all this.

Have you read the thread from the start or are you just a basher?

If ya all dont want to read it, then dont.

I already have stated my intentions.

Sad, perhaps, but it is still in our nature to, on some level, feed the need for sensationalism.
It is just how we are as a product and celebrity obsessed culture.

I'm sure it's being held onto tightly to prevent, as much as possible, the continuation of a media circus.
I enjoy your posting.

I thought that was a catchy title.....
You sure dont want to bring up climate news anymore thats for sure!
I thought it may be safe to talk about big pharma since politics is out.
Wrong!
Thats hilarious! No, its actually got a forum called madness.

So is religion and spirituality. Gone. Doesnt leave much else.

What, the Norway lights, they are still arguing over if it was a rocket or not. Oh oh, am I bashing now?
Crap I better stfu. See what happens? I caught a case of the bash.

Prolly fairly safer to talk about frivilous stuff like this anyway.
What you dont know wont hurt ya type of thing.
Jus sayin'..

dont mean to come of as a rude person but

10.000 people die daily in hospitals , are hospitals bad then ?

10.000 of people die from over medication / unneccesary medicine,
does that make medicines bad ?

in both cases no ,

but regarding this thread isnt the title a bit misleading if the thread is about bashing idiocy in society and the miss use of substances be it prescription or not

secondly who cares if an other "holywood" star falls,

thirdly co coo co coo

Well I had a nice post done and it got kicked it off.
Are you still on me about this?
Or are you just kidding with me now?

I merely posted an article!
The title is the same as the article!
You'll have to talk to the person that wrote it.
Its up to us to stay on topic. Right?

I offered everyone a chance to post opinions, news, tributes, whatever also may help someone else.
I offered my advice from someone who has experienced many
"miraculous" healings with natural treatments.
Once again, I am merely pointing out people have a choice
other than drugs and surgery and to take resonsibility for themselves,
which is what we all agree on anyway!
How is this not a good thing?
Did you read through the thread btw?

It sounds like its going to be awhile for the report.
Id say go grab a snack and something to drink...
and we'll see ya in a few weeks!

According to the notes, the medications included Topamax (anti-seizure meds also to prevent migraines), Methylprednisolone (anti-inflammatory), Fluoxetine (depression med), Klonopin (anxiety med), Carbamazepine (treats Diabetic symptoms and is also a bipolar med), Ativan (anxiety med), Vicoprofen (pain reliever), Propranolol (hypertension, used to prevent heart attacks), Biaxin (antibiotic), Hydrocodone (pain med) and miscellaneous vitamins.

Regarding patient information inserts such as that, it's also very important to note the incidence of these side effects.

You'll find the manufacturers are compelled to note all sorts of things, even when the patient incidents are extremely rare to the point of being almost non-existant.

I have been involved at a senior level in both "big pharma" & "big medical device / technology" areas for many years.

I have rarely seen anything intentionally "bad" done.

I know of some rare "bad" decisions that in my opinion should not have been taken, but even then there has been an alternative opinion to mine that was not entirely without merit.

It's just not a "black & white" argument.

There are many "shades of grey" & those "shades of grey" can change as new information becomes available.

Kind regards
Maybe...maybe not

The guy that wrote that article apparently is huh?

If you wanna cruze back a few pages we talked about that already.

But hey we can keep playin this broken record till the needle falls off.
Or the cows come home, whichever comes last.

Why dont you go back and read what I posted before jumping in haphazardly.
Lord knows I do that too sometimes and it never fails,
I always end up feeling like an a**.

Here lets go through this again.

I should have added there are plenty of greedy people in there & also some that I consider not to be too bright.

I guess that's the same in all industries.
