Anti-psychotic drug use soars in UK children, too

A problem similar to the one with the malpractice known as diet drugs.

"American children take anti-psychotic medicines at about six times the rate of children in the United Kingdom, according to a comparison based on a new U.K. study.

Does it mean U.S. kids are being over-treated? Or that U.K. children are being under-treated?

Experts say that's almost beside the point, because use is rising on both sides of the Atlantic. And with scant long-term safety data, it's likely the drugs are being over-prescribed for both U.S. and U.K. children, research suggests."

One - they do not know the long-term safety of the malpractice known as diet drugs.

Two - they over-prescribe that crap and without indication.

Fight back.
