It's free and worth the price. 1 in 4 Canadians in long-term care were given anti-psychotic drugs without diagnosis, report finds - The Globe and Mail
One in four Canadians living in long-term care homes were prescribed anti-psychotic medication without a diagnosis of psychosis, according to a new report that highlights serious risks associated with using the powerful drugs.
Because people who are drugged out of their minds don't cause problems.
“Inappropriate use of antipsychotics can carry serious risks, including adverse reactions, cognitive decline, falls and even death,” the report cautioned.
And if you don't want to be drugged, Canada's doctors now kill more people than Canada's guns.
I can't wait until we have socialized medicine.
