AT,

This is a start...

This group is an outgrowth of Ralph Nader's consumer protection practices. While I have no problem with protecting consumers, I don't believe it should be through scare tactics and attacks. If they really wanted to help, they would work with the industry to solve problems, not attack them after the fact. Look at the list of publications and letters and you can see that the general tone is negative. "Your doctor is bad" and that kind of stuff. Even some of the drugs they have chosen to write about are considered safe by most standards.

If you want good information on the use of common drugs, bounce your questions off a physician or pharmacist that you trust and not off some group with an obvious agenda.

All this FWIW and IMHO.

Regards,

Dave
