The story on FOX was prefaced with the remark, “but it’s for the children,” of course. And the media bobbleheads really believe it. And I suppose most Americans believe all of this nonsense they are fed on a daily basis from the Pharmaceutical-Government-Corporatist complex that seeks to keep you a prisoner of its rent-seeking machinations. This story on perthnow (via [...]

Five months after 32-year-old actress Brittany Murphy was found dead of “natural causes,” her 39-year-old husband was also found dead of, well, natural causes.
The pharmaceutical industry is so worshiped and defended, the medical establishment and media refuse to call its drugs “drugs.” Chemical, body-changing pharmaceuticals are a higher form of “medication,” of course, while the [...]

What an incredible investigative piece on CNN Health, citing Pfizer’s illegal – according to FDA rules – marketing of the painkiller Bextra. Now I don’t support the notion of the FDA as a legitimate authority, however, the law of the land is enforced with a great big jack boot, except in the case of the [...]

On the LewRockwell.com blog, David Kramer links to a story about Prozac and its use for ….. dogs.
The pharmaceutical companies, once upon a time, had a semi-honorable quest to cure diseases and improve the quality of life for the very ill. That all went away with the proliferation of the almighty state and the growth [...]

More Big Pharma antics over at Pharmaceutical Daily – otherwise called the Wall Street Journal. First, there’s a story about Merck & Co’s cholesterol drugs, Vytorin and Zetia, which are, like all of these potent prescription drugs, making people sicker and/or killing them. The FDA had reviewed clinical trials that showed an increased risk of [...]

Despite the maddening nature of this paragraph from an article in the Wall Street Journal Pharmaceutical Daily, hardly no one who reads the story will notice it:
A measure to allow the importation of cheaper prescription drugs from Canada and some other countries fell short in the Senate Tuesday night, but lawmakers were working on other [...]

Previously, I have blogged about Gardasil and Cervarix, and the evil intentions behind the move to make these ineffective and dangerous vaccines mandatory. I have briefly mentioned Dr. Diane Harper, a researcher who was involved in designing and implementing the studies of both HPV vaccines, Cervarix and Gardasil, on a worldwide scale. After the death of [...]

Well, since Wimpus Americanus cannot ride out the flu, the FDA, in an emergency ruling, approved an unapproved drug (antiviral drug peramivir) for use in “some cases.”
Hospitals in the U.S., where hundreds of swine flu patients are being admitted daily, may use BioCryst Pharmaceutical Inc.’s antiviral drug peramivir in some cases under a Food and Drug Administration emergency [...]

In a previous blog, I mentioned a couple of points about Merck’s Gardasil and GlaxoSmithKline’s Cervarix, with both companies competing for guinea pigs to increase their customer base for HPV vaccines. First, GlaxoSmithKline had applied to the FDA for approval to sell its HPV vaccine, Cervarix, in the United States. Second, Merck had applied to [...]

The first video is a lively parody of the sad case of American prescription drug dependence. The last full minute of the commercial is a hilarious running disclaimer. The second video represents the true nature of psychiatric drugs. The third one is a terrific spoof that reflects the reality of the pharmaceutical drugging of America [...]
