Drug Side Effects--Make the Type Small
So You Can't Read it!
Ads for drugs are everywhere, paid for by
the pharma companies that make them. All drugs have side effects, of
course. But the side effects, sometimes death, are often played down by
being printed in miniscule type. Is this intentional? We leave it to you
to guess.
You will not see ads for the foods that
medical science shows can be substituted for the drugs. There's very
little money in that. So now we begin a series listing advertised drugs
and the teeny-typeface side effects that accompany them. But we use
regular-size typeface.
TOPAMAX--beautiful ad, succinct,
enticing. Side effects? Thousands of tiny-type words of
contraindications, adverse reactions, delivery, drug interactions, etc.
For example, under Warnings, "Acute myopia
'near-sightedness] and Secondary Angle Closure Glaucoma...Cognitive-related
dysfunction (e.g., depression or mood problems)...
Psychiatric/behavioral disturbances..." And on and on.
Although we do not diagnose or prescribe, we
do publish established research on the use of
foods, vitamins and herbs over drugs.
