A recent study by the New England Journal of Medicine proves that pharmaceutical companies aren’t always giving you the whole story. In fact, most people develop an addiction to prescription drugs because they are not fully informed of all side effects.
For years pharmaceutical companies have been all over the airwaves with solutions to your problems. One pill one or two times a day will handle your ADHD, BiPolar, Depression, Restless Leg Syndrome…the list goes on and on, but what if all the success stories we hear so much about weren’t the whole story?
A new study, published in the New England Journal of Medicine she some light on the unpublished side of things. It was found that pharmaceutical companies were telling us only half truths. “Selective publication of clinical trials – and the outcomes within those trials – can lead to unrealistic estimates of drug effectiveness and alter the apparent risk-benefit ratio” explains the paper.
This type of misinformation is what leads people to become addicted to drugs. In the last five years rehabilitation facilities have seen a growing amount of people addicted to prescription pain meds.
