hi guys,
this is a very good article regarding the pharmaceutical industry and 'dtca' in europe, which is direct to consumer advertising.

i just think its a worthwhile read to those of us that have (like myself) had a visceral reaction to the adhdfraud websites out there.
it seems that one of the garnering arguments for their team (i.e. that anti med/adhd fraud camp..note: there are probably ppl out there that just want a more judicious dispensing of meds, and those that think the meds are a harm and a detriment and shouldn't be used, and others that feel that adhd is just fake) is that our meds health benefit is bunk..
well...it could be ...
although i'm taking meds that help me immensely for the most part
i do agree that the con's involved with taking these serious medications is often not well discussed
balance is required.
i've always believed that a profit based medical and pharmaceutical industry is a conflict of interest considering it is our health at stake.
thanks...
