Hous Banning Ads of New Drugs
A bill was just introduced in the House banning advertising of new drugs and devices for the first three years on the market. It also requires TV drug and device ads include a toll-free number, so we can easily report serious side effects to the FDA.
In September of 2007 we learned that “a substantially growing number of patients” were being injured or killed by drugs they were taking under doctor’s orders. This was according to a report from the Institute for the Safe Medication Practices. The report found that deaths and injuries resulting from prescribed medication use had doubled between 1998 and 2005, mostly from painkillers and immune system builders. The drugs related deaths went from 5,519 in 1998 to 15, 107 in 2005.
Some of us were paying attention.
Narconon of Georgiahas started a “What’s in Your Medicine Cabinet?” Through newsletters, the internet, radio and lectures, our intention is to educate as many people as we can on the dangers of prescription medication.
We feel very strongly that we will save lives to the degree we get the word out.
Our voice is not as loud as the TV commercials, but we make sense and we think most will want to listen.
There is an opportunity where you can also help us to get your law makers to listen.A bill was just introduced in the House banning advertising of new drugs and devices for the first three years on the market. We are making a difference and will continue to do so as long we make our voices heard.
Join us in our campaign as we unite forces with other organizations.
Individuals have a right to their sanity and peace of mind. We must help protect that right.
