June 09, 2008ADHD Skin Patch Drug RecalledShire has had many problems with the Daytrana patch. An earlier recall was because they couldn't get it to stay on peoples' skin. Now this: "Shire Ltd. said Monday it is voluntarily recalling some of its Daytrana attention deficit hyperactivity disorder skin patches because some people could have difficulty removing the release liner, or backing material, of the patch before applying it to the skin." Not such a big deal, but when you are marketing a drug for kids and adults with ADHD, then you'd better make it easy to use. One wonders why they don't just copy the Nicoderm patch.

Oh brother! I've got tons of DTC for that patch! makes me wonder if Charles Nemeroff will pay attention to this sticky situation when he goes to market with (his patented)Lithium patch! Posted by: Stephany at June 9, 2008 11:20 AMThanks for the information on ADHD. We recently wrote an article on doctor ethics on Brain Blogger. All the latest health concerns in drugs and phamacology are brought to light. From anti-depressants and natural sleeping aids and their efficiency to the rise in tooth decay in children and whether fluoride supplementation is the answer. We would like to read your comments on our article. Thank you. Sincerely, So the kiddies don't like swallowing their needless neurological perturbment guesswork pharmacology, and we are going to make a slow release patch... how diabolically evil can the human race become. Suffer the little children. What planet do we live on when a child, forced to attend indoctrination for six hours a day, forced to face family breakdowns, food made of plastic, tv messages relentless compared to what the average hunter gatherer child faced, and some wacko ideologue sends a note home saying the kid is ADHD and needs to go see some ideologue psycho with a DSM and a script pad, and the parent pump this filth into the most sacred of sacred things, the kid's growing neurology. It's ok kids. Try and 'battle' with your contrived disability, I'm sure all the otherness and birth defect talk won't harm your confidence as you go out into this cruel misguided world at all. Imagine how they are going to feel when they grow up, if their neurology survives, and major organs survive, and they see what we did to them. Do you think some of them might end up a little alienated and angry like Cho at Virgina Tech? What a minute, you're just 'professionals' who've been educated in the cutting edge guesswork pharmacology for the disease that is human distress and I should leave you to perform your artful 'care interventions' on any generation you want. This is like living in a nightmare world. Posted by: Poe at June 9, 2008 08:21 PMPost a comment
