The misprescribing and overprescribing of drugs is a trend with such inertia that it seems to be unstoppable. The power of the pharmaceutical companies and drug industry is massive and underestimated. As a result, millions of drug-induced diseases and their attendant complications and consequences are experienced each year by unsuspecting people who trust their doctors implicitly.
Without a doubt, prescription drugs can be useful – even life saving – for some people. When used as directed and only when absolutely necessary, prescriptions can be a blessing. Recently, however, WorstPills.org published some staggering statistics related to the misprescribing, overprescribing, and misuse of prescription drugs that is all too common within our current medical system: http://www.naturalhealingtoday.com/article_008.html.
