today it came out that the guy that tested the drug crestor for astro zenega was paid by the company and gets royalties on the drug. crestor is a drug that is supposed to help cholesterol problems. alot of peope that take this crestor are complaining of cramps and other problems inside their bodies.

another thing came out today that fixodent contains to much zinc, and if taken wrong it poisons your body.

we as citizens are paying for the FDA, food and drug administration, to protect us from bad drugs going into our bodies. personally i think all the drugs the doctors give you do more harm than good for your bodies. why don't they do their job?

the drug sector has the second largest amount of lobbyist in washington dc. they happen to be a close second to financial institutions. we all know those banks are croaking us, what about the drug company's? do we really need healthcare insurance bills,or do we need some common sense?
we are paying to wreck our bodies.

Drugs used to be tested in tightly controlled clinical situations within the walls of medical schools.


NOW various practitioners sign up guinea pigs and of course they all want the $$$$$ that go with the testing so there is a big fudge factor.

ALL THE STATINS have the potential of liver damage.

THINGS like this is why I pleaded with patients to take meds that had been on the market for many years. ALL the side effects were known by then.
