Manage episode 444117344 series 3530669
**Discussion begins at 7:30**
Have you ever taken a pill before? Have you ever received a prescription? Did you think to yourself, 'is this diluted with water'? Did you think to yourself, 'what truly is behind the theory behind this medicine'? Today we are talking about all of the conspiracy theories surrounding Big Pharma… People have long alleged that that pharmaceutical companies suppress cures for diseases to maintain a steady revenue from ongoing treatments. In fact, there is a belief that big pharma is actively working to suppress alternative treatments that could compete with pharmaceutical products. Further conspiracy theories include assertions that data from drug trials are manipulated to ensure FDA approval and market success, that the government colludes to enforce regulations that favor their interests, and that big pharma influences doctors through kickbacks and promotions, which could lead to biased prescribing practices. Today we’re going to have our resident PharmD breakdown these and other conspiracy theories.
