Great story! Sounds so similar to many other prescription drugs scandals

Brilliant read. Very well researched and presented. It proves the era of medical authority is slowly ending. Too many people are harmed by prescription drugs. Think twice before going to the doctor.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
