This two-volume set explores the way the drug companies operate, how they get the drugs to market and how they influence doctors into prescribing them to you. It also pinpoints the most dangerous drugs around and their worrying side effects.
In the second volume, Secrets and Side Effects, we look at the way the drugs industry manipulates science in order to get its drug prescribed, the occasions when the industry has even invented diseases or produced ‘scare’ stories in order to create a new market. Finally, we look at the dangerous side effects of some of the world’s most common drugs, including COX-2 inhibitors, bisphosphonates, anti-epileptics, and statins.
