I've heard that AZ has spent millions on legal defense going to every length possible to prevent this from entering court. I hope that a lawfirm kicks some ass and does their job right and takes them out, to the tune of bankrupting AstraZeneca.

Far too many people have been injured on that drug, and diabetes is an unwanted side effect that is a permanent, lifetime body damage. There is no monetary replacement on value of life and life that has been cut short just because someone was given a pill.

The fact that AZ has documents stating the company was aware of diabetes and the drug was still marketed, in my opinion makes them criminals, in the most obvious way.

The fact that the FDA will most likely approve this drug for use in children under age 18 is disgusting, how that panel of people can do that is beyond belief.

Why would ANYONE take a drug such as Zyprexa or Seroquel while those drugs are in litigation? why would a doctor prescribe them?

I'm sick of this pharmaceutical nightmare. When is the general public going to wise up and see what is happening?

Melissa Del Bello, on the advisory board of CABF the most prominent internet support groups for parents of "bpkids dot org" is one of the most conflicted KOL's right up there with the bipolar child kingpin Biederman.

She has a personal "business" she set up that AstraZeneca "donated" $60,000 to, and her address for the business is the place she works!

She failed to report AZ income just like Biederman and Senator Grassley is the one who dug up all of the information I wrote about here.

It's a crime against humanity, we are just pawns in this financial pharma market, targets, and the drug companies do not give a shit if you are damaged or dead from using their drug.

Just my opinion.

AZ is playing legal hard ball to the tune of a billion dollars defending a known poison.

What they should, or maybe have not realized yet; many litigants will not settle any of their cases now (that will no doubt increase both the legal cost and penalties for AZ), due directly to AZ's cold and calculated take no prisoners strategy.

This in the end could very well send AZ into bankruptcy, and drive it out of business. You would have to wonder how their share holders will feel then?

Let's call these psychiatric substances what they are..
They're poisonous toxic chemicals ..
These drugs are not healers of the psyche, the mind or the emotions. They are snake oil chemicals and the pharmaceutical companies know that the easiest people to exploit are those who have troubles with their psyches, minds and emotions.

I am currently taking Seroquel. I thank god for that drug and the psychiatrists that prescribe it. Granted I suffer from the symptoms associated with taking the medication, but they are better than the alternative of cycling between maniac and depressive episodes. I've been taking Seroquel for 2 1/2 years, and I feel, act, and think like a rational human being. So don't bash a drug based solely on those it's negatively effected, there are thousands it's helped.

"I thank god for that drug and the psychiatrists that prescribe it"

Which God would that be, the J. Biederman god?

"So don't bash a drug based solely on those it's negatively effected, there are thousands it's helped."

Let's look at what we should all ignore here from your holy than thou drugs are great position: I won't even debate that you "act, and think like a rational human being" since I'm sure NAMI, Big Pharma, and Psychiatry think and act like rational people also?

1. let us all ignore that this drug has severely damaged, even killed people, and will continue to do so
2. let us ignore it has caused irreversible side effects including TD, diabetes, sudden heart attack, and countless negative others
3. let us ignore the misinformation and skewed data campaign by Big Pharma and Psychiatry
4. let us ignore the obvious conflicts of interest perpetrated upon millions out of pure greed
5. let's us ignore that this drug does not treat anything {including your trumped up and misleading genetic and chemical imbalance theories}; since it is basically just a powerful sedative which acts as a chemical restrain upon both the mind and body.
6. let us all ignore the lack of science and proof associated with your dubious claim "thousands it's helped"

I honestly don't see where it has helped anyone in reality. But then fortunately you have the gift to choice whether to take this drug or not. How about all those kids and others that have no choice? I'm sure they will thank you and all those great psychiatrist from their wellness grave.
