Study 329: The Big Fraud Is Finally Under Review by Maryanne Demasi at Brownstone Institute It began with a lie. In 2001, the Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry (JAACAP) published a paper declaring that the antidepressant paroxetine (Paxil) was “generally well tolerated and effective” for adolescent depression. That conclusion was false. The manufacturer, GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), knew from its own data that the drug failed to outperform placebo and carried ...| Brownstone Institute

Why the Healers Had to Rebel by Joseph Varon at Brownstone Institute There was a time when the white coat symbolized courage. It meant that a physician stood between humanity and harm, guided not by decree but by conscience.

Medicine ceased to be a vocation of service and became a system of obedience. The quiet transformation began long befor...| Brownstone Institute
