PSYCHO-PHARMA FRONT GROUPS: SCREENING FOR MENTAL HEALTH, INC
Pharma-funded front groups masquerading as “patient advocates”.
These groups are not what they appear to be. Yet their influence over legislation, lobbying, drug regulation (or lack thereof), and public relations campaigns is substantial and can seriously impact society.
Thousands of sites in hospitals, corporations, and universities around the country provided free depression screening, which involved people answering a modified version of the Zung Self-Rating Scale, a subjective questionnaire lasting less than five minutes. By 1998, more than 60 million prescriptions for antidepressants had been written for 10% of the American population, including half a million children.
