(Natural News) Nearly 11 years ago, AstraZeneca, a British drug manufacturer that today is pushing Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) injections, agreed to settle a lawsuit accusing the company of illegally marketing the anti-psychotic drug Seroquel to both children and seniors.
The company allegedly paid off doctors to illicitly prescribe the drug outside the bounds of what the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) allows. While the agreed-upon settlement was not an official admission of guilt, it does suggest that AstraZeneca knew it would lose the case and thus decided to cut its losses.
This type of thing happens all the time with Big Pharma, which is notorious for pushing the off-label prescription of its drugs to boost profits. AstraZeneca is no different, and even went a step further by fraudulently stealing millions of taxpayer dollars from Medicare and Medicaid.
The FDA had only approved Seroquel as a treatment for psychotic disorders, specifically short-term treatments of schizophrenia, bipolar mania, and bipolar depression. AstraZeneca went beyond this, according to the government, by lobbing kickbacks at doctors to prescribe the drug for many other conditions.
These off-label conditions included aggression, Alzheimer’s disease, anger management, anxiety, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), dementia, depression, mood disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder and sleeplessness.
AstraZeneca also treated the elderly, children, veterans, and prison inmates as human “guinea pigs,” stated the then-acting U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
“Under the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, pharmaceutical firms must specify the intended uses of a medicine in its new drug application,” reported ABC News at the time.
“Before a drug is approved, the FDA determines that it is safe and effective for the use proposed by the company. Once approved, the drug may not be marketed or promoted for off-label uses.”
Letting corrupt drug companies inject you with poison is utter foolishness…
