8 New Diseases The Pharma Has Invented To Make More Money

Since direct-to-consumer drug advertising debuted in 1997, pharma's credo has been When The Medication Is Ready, The Disease (and Patients) Will Appear. Who knew so many people suffered from restless legs? Now pharma is back to creating new diseases, patients, risks and "awareness campaigns." Check out these eight new diseases they've invented.1. SERM deficiencyA pill to prevent postmenopausal osteoporosis packs the "magic three" of drug sales-- fear, forever and faith--since you never know if it's working or you need it but fear stopping. But 15 years after women began swallowing bisphosphonates like Boniva and Fosamax because pharma-planted bone density machines in medical offices revealed they had "osteopenia,"* bisphosphonates are linked to jaw bone death, esophageal cancer and causing the fractures they were supposed to prevent. Sorry about that. Now pharma is hawking Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs) like Evista and Tamoxifen to prevent osteoporosis and even some cancers. Unfortunately they can cause others…2. Statin DeficiencyIf it seems like the whole world is on statins, it's not your imagination. Last year the FDA approved AstraZeneca's Crestor for children as young as 10 and in March it approved Crestor for 6.5 million people who have no cholesterol or heart problems at all! (See: fear, forever and faith.) Many say, since lead investigator of the Justification for the Use of Statins in Primary Prevention study Paul Ridker of Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston is co-patent holder/inventor of the C-reactive protein (CRP) test which "proves" Crestor's effectiveness, there's a conflict of interest. Others say, since CRP isn't necessarily even a marker for heart disease and statins can cause Type 2 diabetes, it's bad science along with a conflict of interest.)3. Circadian DysrhythmiaInsomnia is a gold mine for pharma because everyone sleeps -- or watches TV when they can't. But Ambien, Lunesta, Sonata and Rozerem have reached market saturation, so pharma is rolling out subcategories like nocturnal, middle-of-the-night (MOTN) and terminal insomnia and sleep eating, sleep walking and sleep sweating (yes sweating) to boost the franchise. Meanwhile another demo is swelling Circadian Dysrhythmia numbers: Thanks to restless legs syndrome, sleep apnea, shift work sleep disorder, people who skimp on sleep and of course insomnia meds themselves, there's an epidemic of excessive sleepiness! Enter Provigil --"a mood-brightening and memory-enhancing psychostimulant which enhances wakefulness and vigilance," -- Adderall and Vyvanse, known in the days of Lenny Bruce -- also an "excessive sleepiness" sufferer -- as speed.4. Adult Autism, ADHD and Refusal to Play NicelyHaving marketed adult diseases like depression, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia in 4-year-olds to death, pharma is now finding childhood diseases in adults. Adults with ADHD have hyperactivity, impulsivity, "executive function deficits" and "difficulty with organization and time management," says Harvard Medical School's Joseph Biederman, in a 2004 JAMA. The disease requires "lifelong" medication says Biederman, who was accused of pushing Risperdal and hiding pharma income by Congress in 2008. Adults may suffer from autism too says a 2008 article in Psychiatric News, if they're "unsociable, extremely rigid, given to angry outbursts" and "acutely sensitive to light, heat, and pain." Luckily, in two studies "SSRI antidepressants led to a decrease in repetitive behaviors and to somewhat more socializing," in adults with autism says Psychiatric News.5. Asthma That Requires "Two Drugs"Leave it to pharma to develop an asthma drug--the long-acting beta2-agonists (LABAs)-- that triples the rate of asthma deaths, especially in African-Americans. And leave it to the FDA to approve LABA's on the basis of a trial, the 2003 SMART trial (Salmeterol Multicenter Asthma Research Trial), that was stopped early because of so many deaths. In March, after more deaths, especially in children, a sheepish FDA recast LABAs as a last resort medication with or without use of a concomitant inhaled steroid. But AstraZeneca doesn't want to stop selling its LABA with a steroid, Symbicort -- and GSK its LABA with a steroid, Advair -- just because they're correlated with death. So the LABA drugs are being billed as safe and able to treat "both" causes of asthma (see: Vytorin) and projected to earn billions this year.6. "Treatment Resistant" ConditionsIf an engine additive or laundry product didn't work, who would chase it with another product--or two-- because the manufacturer told them to? Who would pay $300 to $900 a month out of their pocket for antidepressants, antipsychotics, mood stabilizers and mood brighteners some of which don't work? (see: fear, forever, faith.) Increasingly, pharma is approving drugs as add on or "adjunctive therapy" like AstraZeneca's antipsychotic Seroquel, approved last year "for patients who had failed to respond adequately to an antidepressant alone." Also last year, the FDA approved Eli Lilly's Symbyax, a combination of the SSRI antidepressant Prozac and controversial antipsychotic Zyprexa -- do patients gain 100 pounds but feel great? -- for "treatment resistant depression." Why are diseases "treatment resistant" instead of the drugs "ineffective" or diagnoses "wrong"?7. Low TMen are you feeling run down and over the hill? Is your hair falling out, skin wrinkling and abdomen developing its own zip code? Have you lost interest in sex or worse, has your partner? (With you?) Do you need reading glasses, dental implants and heel splints? You're not getting old, you just have Low T and are ready for the aging-is-really-just-low-hormones con that women have lived with for 60 years: hormone replacement therapy. Like 50 million women before you, you can be Forever Masculine even though, to (quote hormone giant Wyeth) you have outlived your testes if you start replacing your lost testosterone. You'll get both kinds of zips back in your life, and it won't change your prostate-specific antigens. Pharma promises.8. "Spectrum" DisordersNothing proves pharma's when-the-medication-is-ready credo better than the legions of people who have fibromyaglia now that Cymbalta, Savella and Lyrica are available to treat it. Still, a "grassroots" pharma front group is conducting a Fibromyalgia Is Real awareness campaign like it did for depression and bipolar disorder, just to make sure. Pharma has also rolled out the term "depression spectrum disorder" for fibromyalgia to make sure patients who have some but not all of the symptoms seek treatment. And speaking of spectrums, "Epilepsy Spectrum Disorder" was rolled out in January's JAMA -- a disorder which is not just about seizures anymore but has "shared mechanisms" with "depression, autism.., and other cognitive comorbidities." Spectrum disorders are Real--which is pharma for Reimbursable.* a pharma contrivance like "perimenopause" to widen the patient poolRead More @http://www.alternet.org/personal-health/8-invented-diseases-big-pharma-banking

Unfortunely, you're just parroting what the tinfoil-community have repeated for years but still have not been able to produce any valid evidence to proove.

Although, depopulation is nescessary lest we want to work on a way to get - and + to realize they're of the same battery and therefore in league with each other and where the biggest challenge of today is to convince radical salafists to realize that they and the people they slay, are of the same hand and that they should work together rather than exterminating each other. ;)

Other than that, the plans for depopulation have come to a pathetic halt that can only be remedied through extraterrestrial means.

If your contacts are telling you that the govts plan depopulation, you can be quite certain that they're NOT telling you the truth. It's more likely it's THEY who're actually planning this depopulation.

I need to comment a little on this.

"4. Adult Autism, ADHD"

I'm not even going to adress the issue "Adult Autism" since Autism is something people are born with and can't develop later on.
ADHD however... I've met people with REAL ADHD, and those people operate at 300%+ the energy that you and I operate on.
They speak faster, they work faster and they think faster (although the don't think 300% more accurate unfortunely) than you an I.

In short, it's NOT an "invented disease".
Personally, I don't think of it as a disease at all but rather a neurological handicap.

  For humanitys benefit. Space is BIG, with lots of dangers ahead. If we're ever going to be space-born, we will need a body-type that is resillient to most dangers that chaotically have developed out there, and the only way to accomplish such a body type, is to expose its evolving type to dangers.
  
  Children who grow up in protected environments, seldom develop character and adaptability.
  
  On earth, billions of different life-forms compete for majority, and the funny alchemical result of all that will be, a humanoid body type that will be able to exist in any galaxy at any time. :)

All drugs are selective poisons.

  Don't say that to Malcolm. He'll bite your head off. ;)
  
  I too like a joint of weed every now and then. I have yet to discover the "poison"-part of that drug though (unless you smoke it every day. Then the poison-part will become VERY clear to you). ;)
  
  But, the next time you get an illness that can't be cured without antibiotics, remember what you've stated here tonight and do human evolution a favor and boycott the antibiotics. Your faith alone will heal you, I Promise. ;)

    I DON'T BITE ANYONE. I always fire warning shots if threatened. It's all about how you define the word "drug." Alcohol is a poison, but it can also be used as a drug to save someone's life if they accidentally drank antifreeze, which could be defined as a poison.

All those involved in the PHARMA are murderers, criminals and crooks and need a dose of their own medicine ..tit for tat.
In reality only medicine if needed should be natural with no side effects ..this is what the doctors and Pharma should work on ...NOT BLOOD MONEY THAT THEY ARE MAKING NOW
