Change pharmaceutical drug policies versus new gun legislation, given the connection of psychotropic drugs to violence.

Created by A.B. on January 13, 2013

Given the nature and potentially devastating impact of psychotropic drugs, in the wake of recent shootings, we implore our leaders to set aside ambitions of political agendas via industry loyalties to address the reality that pharmaceutical drug policies need major overhauls to prevent gun violence versus the mask of more gun legislation.
22 international drug regulatory warnings cite pychiatric drugs causing violent reactions including mania, psychosis, hostility, violence and homicide. Recent study by Medco Health Solutions, Inc., reveals that one in five adults take at least one psychiatric drug. A study of 950 acts of violence committed by people taking antidepressants found 362 murders, 13 school shootings, 5 bomb threats or bombings and 350 suicides or suicide attempts.
