It needs little commentary. Medical science is supposed to tell us that Big Pharma drugs are effective and safe, and that is what most people think it does.
But what this study, reported in 'the Archives of Internal Medicine' reveals the following:
"Up to 80 per cent of ‘scientific’ papers that research the effectiveness and safety of a drug are nothing but marketing pieces, designed to drum up sales – and a new example has come to light this week. A study on the epilepsy drug Neurontin (gabapentin) was a ‘seeding trial’ – it was marketing dressed up as science.
