1 Out of 5 New Drugs Result in Serious Undetected Safety Issues
October 10, 2012
A study indicating that new drugs carry a 1 in 5 chance of causing unknown adverse side effects prompt a commentary in the Archives of Internal Medicine advocating for a special warning for three years after a drug’s initial approval: “New Drug: Caution Indicated.”

Should new drugs wear ‘proceed with caution’ labels? (Fierce Pharma)
Absolutely absurd. Every drug, 5/5, have had serious adverse “side effects” that only came to be known after the drugs were FDA approved.
I doubt there has ever been a drug that was released and then 20 years later there were no new significant dangers known about it.

Right on, Jeffrey C.
I know enough about “science” the hard way that I now know better than to read this junk as some kind of unprejudicial “truth”.
I would be in a much better place in my life right now had my path not crossed with so much “science” in the form of polypharmacy psych drugging.
