Eli Lilly Wants to Expose Children to Zyprexa
Posted at December 16, 2007 10:56 AM in .
In a St. Pete Times article in which I'm quoted extensively, Eli Lilly is on the verge of receiving FDA approval for Zyprexa with children. The drug is marketed to treat adults with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder but carries with it the dangerous side effect of diabetes. The risk of diabetes is even greater in children. Yet the underfunded FDA is about to approve its use in children. As I stated in the St. Pete Times article, "Why did it take 10 years to warn people about something they knew from their clinical trials? The reason is clear: They were making billions and billions of dollars selling it."
