Newer Antipsychotic Drugs Kill Patients by Causing Heart Attacks

The ultimate cure for schizophrenia is death, and Big Pharma's drugs are delivering precisely that, says new research conducted at the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine. In fact, the newer "atypical" antipsychotic drugs turn out to present a far greater risk of fatal heart attacks (100% increase) than the very same older drugs that the FDA warned the public about in June of 2008.

The study's conclusions cover the following drugs: clozapine, Risperdal, Zyprexa and quetiapine (Seroquel). Together, these drugs earned a whopping $14.5 billion in sales for Big Pharma in 2007, reports Reuters.

Drug companies routinely try to push doctors and patients to newer drugs by hyping up their benefits with slick marketing campaigns. In truth, however, most newer drugs are inferior to older drugs and pose higher risks of fatal side effects while costing patients and insurance companies far more money. Drug marketing in modern-day America is all about making more profits, not solving actual health problems in patients.

It's worth noting that these very same dangerous drugs are routinely prescribed for fictitious psychiatric conditions such as "bipolar disorder" or ADHD. And yet the FDA has never approved these drugs for such conditions, meaning that many prescriptions are made "off label." It's one of the dirty little secrets of the psychiatric industry, and it proves that modern psychiatry is based on pure quackery, not proven scientific evidence (as they claim).

While dangerous drugs come and go, psychiatrists continue to ignore nutritional options for treating children, claiming that nutrition has no role whatsoever in brain health (absurd), and that a troubled child is simply deficient in pharmaceuticals.

It is my position that the drugging of infants and children with mind-altering psychotropic drugs is a crime against humanity and that the business of modern psychiatry is a criminal enterprise.
