But there are thousands of other people who suffer and die because of the wrong prescription.This is one harrowing story about a father, a family, a daughter.

We are led to believe that if a medication isn't safe, the government would never allow it on the market and that doctors would never prescribe a drug that isn't proven effective. Who controls these narratives? And do they always have the best interests of patients in mind?In an in-depth study of the enormous influence the pharmaceutical industry has over our health, drug safety advocate Terence Young explores how those with the most to gain financially are also those who wield all the power in health care - and withhold the knowledge that is critical to the safety of patients.Forbidden Knowledge reveals the truth you need to know about prescription drugs and what to do about it.
