New Warnings on Fatal Side Effects of ADHD Drugs press release
After decades of psychiatrists championing ADHD stimulants as safe and
effective, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced, in February
this year, that all ADHD drug manufacturers must warn the public that the
drugs can cause serious psychiatric and cardiovascular problems, including
mania, heart attack, stroke and sudden death. Considering the fact that in
the U.S., ADHD drugs raked in nearly $3 billion in profits in 2005 alone, it
is no wonder that the American Psychiatric Association consistently
criticizes anyone who dares expose the dangers of these drugs and regularly
misrepresents their safety and efficacy:



. The APA has repeatedly said that ADHD drugs are "safe and effective"
with only "minimal side effects," a claim found on the APA's website.

. APA President Steven Sharfstein stated that cardiologist Dr. Steven
Nissen and public health sciences professor Dr. Curt Furberg's concern about
the cardiovascular adverse events connected with ADHD drugs were
"unsupported by clear evidence."

. David Fassler, child and adolescent psychiatrist and trustee of the
APA called ADHD drugs "safe and well-tolerated."

Similarly, the APA has heralded antidepressants, which reaped $12.5
billion in 2005, as safe and effective, despite the link between
antidepressants and child and adolescent suicide, now established by the
FDA. Contrary to these warnings, APA's David Fassler stated "The SSRI
antidepressants are generally well tolerated by children and
adolescents.there is no scientific evidence to suggest that these
medications increase the risk of suicide." Former APA president Rudrigo
Munoz claimed, ".there is very little evidence to prove a causal
relationship between the use of antidepressant medications and destructive
behavior." The Citizens Commission on Human Rights, a psychiatric watchdog
group, has published a new report showing that psychiatrists spun data in an
attempt to link black box warnings on antidepressants to increased suicide
rates--an allegation which proves unfounded and faulty. This report further
reveals that the psychiatrists making this claim have significant financial
ties to antidepressant manufacturers.

Despite increasing international warnings on the risks of psychiatric
drugs, they are prescribed to children without any objective, scientific
tests done beforehand-such as blood tests, brain scans or X-rays-that would
show there is anything physically wrong with a child that needs
"medication." Read the Report on the Escalating International Warnings on
Psychiatric Drugs by the Citizens Commission on Human Rights to learn more
about the dangers of psychiatric drugs, or click here to discover more
instances where the president of the APA and other psychiatrists lied about
the effectiveness or scientific basis of psychiatric "treatment."



Brian Beaumont, President of the Vancouver chapter of the Citizens
Commission on Human Rights stated, "The fact is, there is nothing in the
medical, scientific literature that confirms objective abnormality
('objective abnormality' equates to disease) in
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Conduct Disorder (CD),
Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), Post-partum Depression, 'math disorder'
or hundreds of other 'diseases' that psychiatrists swear up and down are
'biological.' If they were biological, scientists would be able to see
evidence in blood workups, x-rays, urinalyses, taps of spinal fluid, or
something. But they can't."

The Citizens Commission on Human Rights was established in 1969 by the
Church of Scientology to investigate and expose psychiatric violations of
human rights, and to clean up the field of mental healing.

This should have been put at the top of the article so that sensible
people would not have to waste their time reading.

You still haven't answered the question Jan - do you agree with the
founder of Scientology that Jesus was a pedophile?

WRONG. It is a front group for the Kriminal Kult of $cientology which
taught Tom Cruise how to jump on couches.

This is like when they go back and forth between eggs being good for
you and then bad for you and then good for you again. The egg is
still the egg. I know my life is better since I got the prescription
stimulants. If my heart dies early, at least I will have lived what
life I did without constant distraction of mental chaos.

No it isn't. It is the Kriminal Kult of $cientology who does not go back
and forth. Their treatment includes exercises such as jumping on couches
like a monkey waiting for a banana and lifting your wallet and removing
the money to lighten your load.

The egg is
still the egg. I know my life is better since I got the prescription
stimulants. If my heart dies early, at least I will have lived what
life I did without constant distraction of mental chaos.

The anti-medders never seem to think of that.
