Glaxo whistle-blower gets $96 million. The deal with Zyprexa is that Eli Lilly pleaded guilty to criminal wrongs ("viva Zyprexa" campaign) the Zyprexa saga was rotten through and through. Eight Lilly EMPLOYEES got millions each as supposed inform
... ant 'whistle blowers'.Lawyers on BOTH sides got millions and millions......most patient claimants who got sick are 'mentally challenged' and less able to advocate for themselves. The Class action Lawsuits in the US had payouts of $85,000 BUT the lawyers got 45 percent and then the govt got most of the rest for having to take care of the victim/patients medical expenses.Soooo,,,,$85K turned into about $9,000 for Zyprexa claimants many had their food stamps and other state benefits taken away because of their *windfall profit* making them worse off in the end. * Daniel Haszard Zyprexa victim activist and patient who got diabetes from it. http://zyprexa-victims.com

What is not so great is the way in which big pharma and psychiatrists insinuate themselves into many normal social responses to fascism by creating new psychiatric diagnoses out of the whole cloth or by supporting harmful drug regimens for conditions
... much better treated with other responses. First two conditions that didn't exist before the Bush-Reagan nazis took over; oppositional-defiant disorder and Delusional Dominating Personality Disorder (DDPD by Kaplan and Pantony). One is enshrined in the DSM-IV almost immediately, the first one and the second buried because many psychiatrists suffer from it as well as other men in positions of power, and hurt others with their consequent abuses of that power. Second is autism, which a study reported by NPR said that autism is much better treated by nutritional strategies (See Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine for more ways to do this), even though most children and adolescents with it are treated with drug strategies. I will never forget the two men 24 years old who were overdosed with Ritalin; the teachers and the school would punish their very understandable outbursts with higher and higher doses, permanently crippling their brain function as a result. Thank Gawd the nazi pigs didn't get ahold of me. Lyle Courtsal
