Prescribing Death: Australia's prescription drug crisis

4/11/2018

 
PLEASE Do Not Come Off Your Medication unless you are under the guidance of a medical professional. There is a place and time limit for some medication to be quite effective, but we need to balance the benefits with the risk. All weaning off medication must be done under a medical professional.  ​"All  medication, pharmaceutical or natural, if they have the power to heal also have the power to harm".
Just yesterday I was talking to a patient and he couldn't believe me when I said we lose more people to prescription drugs than we do to illicit drugs. I could reiterate what Fred Nile said that we need to scrutinise our government policy, conflict of interest with pharmaceutical companies backing agencies and check concerns raised about safety. It is great that the public are no longer being passive in their health care.
