Novartis - A Chronicle of Scandals: Killing Children with Drugs

This information campaign is dedicated to the victims of Novartis AG:
Gunned-down Brazilian farmers - Tortured, maimed and killed animals in
labs - Victims of sexual exploitation by the management - Africans
left to die for profit - Patients poisoned and killed with harmful
drugs - Babies fed with unhealthy food

Part 3: UK: Killing Patients with Ritalin

Daniel Fletcher, an 11 years old boy, was first diagnosed with
Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) at the age of two, and
just three years later the little boy was prescribed the amphetamine-
like drug Ritalin from Novartis. The effect, says his mother Hayley,
was a loss of appetite but no difference in his behaviour. "So the
doctor kept upping the doses until he was on six times the normal
dose, yet he was still hyperactive."
At the age of 14 he was put on Risperdal, an antipsychotic drug
usually given to schizophrenics. "It was as if my son had been
replaced by a doped-up zombie,' said his mother, "I could hardly wake
him in the morning. It was as if all his personality was disappearing,
like a patient in a mental institution."

Hundreds of thousands of others in th UK are still being prescribed
Ritalin, an amphetamine-like stimulant which has the same effect as
"speed" and cocaine, and which, according to new evidence from the
U.S., doesn't even work in the long-term. Ritalin is a methylphenidate
which acts in a similar way to cocaine by stimulating the central
nervous system, which, paradoxically, can have a calming and focusing
effect. Scientists are unclear why it works in this way.

Recent findings suggest that Ritalin can stunt growth as well as
causing heart problems, insomnia and weight problems. In the U.S.,
there have been 51 deaths among children and adults taking Ritalin
since 1999. According to the Medicines and Healthcare Products
Regulatory Agency, 11 British children on Ritalin have died.

Experts fear that inappropriate drugs are not only being used to
control children's behaviour, but are being massively over-prescribed
to some children who are simply naughty.

Novartis, which makes Ritalin, says: "Ritalin has a long record as a
safe and effective medication.“

All stimulants are harmful, not necessarily to the person on the medication,
but by a side effect that affects innocent people, as very likely the child
was.    His parents, or friend of parents could have been on an
anti-depressant thereby affecting the child in the manner of ADHD syndrome.
Hard to believe that what one person ingests can harm another, but that is
the side effect of stimulants.  They transfer harm by a MIND/BODY effect to
an innocent person.   And this in spite of distance.   They can be miles and
miles apart, still the harm continues.
Little know is this fact, it was what Dr. Burril Crohns was looking for as
the answer to the destruction of crohns disease.
My comments are under the name   Kureforcrohns    (search the name) that
explain some of this.  I am not a doctor, or medical person, but acute
observation has proven this to me over and over.    There are many other
articles under my name, but most important is the one an anit-depressants
and the article on Fidel Castro.   The others are on dentistry, I have no
control what articles are put under my name.    In fact, I do not know who
puts them there or who selected my name for (is that blogs>)    I am
computer illiterate, so I cannot explain why and who places the articles.
I have no idea when the world will catch up to the fact that all stimulants,
including all anti-depressants can cause crohns disease and UC to innocent
people.   Strange and weird are the illnesses and strange and weird is the
cause.

Yes, this loon does believe that if one person takes a medication, it
can affect people miles and miles away who are not taking that
medication.

I have experienced an exacerbation of IBD and/or IBS when my ADD
medication was removed.

But in fact, the, inflammatory bowel disorder was preexisting, and it
was alleviated symptopmatically while on ADD tx, as dopamine and
norpep interrupt the inflammatory chemical pathway that may result in
inflamation, whether of the bowel, the skin (psoriais), or vasculature
of the brain that may contribute to migraine.

There are case reports of patients with severe Chrohns disease (a very
serious disorder) who have found relief, symptomativally,.with
Wellbutrin, which affects neurep.

Dear Loon,  (Mark Probert)
Maybe your mind doesn't go very far, but yes, crohns is a mind transmitted
illness and it can go anywhere in the world (wherever the mind can go).
Strange and weird, the only illness affected by the mind and stimulant of
another person's use.   I not only believe it, I KNOW it.    It would cut
the rate of crohns disease and ulcerative colitis if one can relate to it,
and the person on the stimulant cooperates and ceases, but  alas, most
everyone is like you.   Can't believe this is possible, when really, almost
anything is possible in life.

Yes, that is why your Crohn's is where it is. You suffer from

This is not only not possible, but believing it as you do demonstrates
that your problems are between your ears.

Mark,
I stick to this subject because I know it to be so.   If I wished to write
just for the sake of writing, There is plenty of junk  I can resort to.
Besides if not for this agenda, I could scrap the computer, for I know
little how to use it.    Some newly formed global health organization
invited me to join, along with all medical personell, but I don't even know
how to follow instructions to join.
Gail
For those that would like to read more about the subject, read Articles by
Kureforcrohns     (hit search)
Doesn't matter if the world opposes the idea, It would take a hell of a lot
to convince the world stimulants are the cause, they are one drug that the
pharms would never give up.
They do have a good use, but for the side effect of destruction and death.

Despite the fact that you cannot prove it, and have been shown it is
impossible, you stick to it. Like pidgeon poop.

Your "mind" is made up. Your "mind" is closed.

To a certain extent I can prove the cause, but do not feel free to do so and
yes, my mind is closed on this subject.
The cause is not apparent like in  organic illnesses and not readily
recognized.   The symptoms  vary about as much as a mind can imagine and
more symptoms that cannot be imagined.   Whatever, however, can attack the
body is possible with crohns disease.    Tell me why doctors seem to
recognize crohns in some patients in private practice , but in the nursing
homes, the same  symptom can appear in a patient, yet the resident doctor
cannot know it as crohns   ( leg problems, rashes, sores on the  legs,
exceedingly excessive weight gain,(eating unnaturally)  but treats it to the
best of his ability, thank G-d which is not enough in some cases.
I have a dear person in a nursing home (schizophrenic, unable to take care
of herself) who lived with me eight years until I was forced to make a
change for her sake and mine, as she had a friend of her brothers who loved
her as I do.   But he was an addict to marijuana and on to cocaine, and we
were both affected adversely and I thought a change of scenery was in order.
A couple of years later her friend overdosed to death.
He was young and could have lived, but apparently too troubled to remain
clean.    But all the while she lived with me, she did not overeat, had no
rashes, no high blood pressure,  no sores on her legs.   Actually a smart
and beautiful girl.   Her mother however could not handle the irregular
actions of a schizophrenic and I was glad to have  her.   Since being in the
nursing home, the stupid mother and administrator think all the problems she
now has are a regular continuance because of time.   I have asked the
administrator to discontinue ALL the anti-depressants given to some
residents, jeopardizing the rest of the residents not on the meds.   At my
house, she would go in a warm tub to relieve the tension.
The administrator agrees anti-depressants were never used years ago, but her
psychiatrist is the one who prescribes them and she must abide.
Hitler had his physcians experiment on the detainees, so physicians are not
always on the high ground.  especially if they are being bribed which a
nurse told me might be done at the home.   I am extremely disappointed in
those who think they are righteous Orthodox Jews (I am a Jew also) who are
criminals in my estimation, dealing death to the unsuspecting.
Of course all nursing homes are not owned by Jews, so others are just as
guilty.    well, I have spoken what despairs my heart daily.    I had to
bring in religion, because I expect better from those that are seemingly so
righteous.     I have not done the right thing always so I am not entitled
to judge.    But I SEE this unobvious (but to me obvious) death sentence
dealt to some patients.     Anti-depressants are an elective drug, and in my
estimation, are not meant to be., just as marijuana, cocaine etc.    I don't
have all the answers, as they all have their good side which people crave or
need.    But I do know they can kill by the mind alone.    On that there is
no compromise.

Exactly.

Gail, you are a very sweet lady.  But please, please stop telling people
that the cause of many problems (like their children's seizures) is caused
by other people thinking about them.

When I was a new mom I was very upset when my newborn baby spent his first
week of life in a hospital due to seizures.  I know now that there could be
a large number of reasons, helped by good organizations like Rite-Care
(http://www.scottishrite.org/what/phil/ritecare.html ) and
http://epilepsyfoundation.org/ ... and by a well qualified child
neurologist.  I also know I could have been vulnerable to many interesting
ideas.

Which is unfortunate, but very common.

Fortunately my oldest son is almost 20 years old, and I did not succumb to
many of the interesting ideas on Usenet and the Internet because they did
were then not in my realm of reality.

So please, do other young parents a favor:

Prove it!

Or in other words:

Put up or shut up!
news.chi.sbcglobal.net - 14 May 2008 12:46 GMT
Of course not all incidents of illness are due to anti-depressants.  but it
is something to be aware of.   Some years ago, I put an ad in the paper
stating the cause as I knew it of crohns disease.   A doctor in the then
County Hospital of Chicago called me and asked if that applied to embryos,
while the child was still unborn.    I replied I did not know, as I did not
know.   She went on to say that the babies born to mothers on stimulants had
rumination and had to be taken from the mother and given to a surrogate care
taker so they could be well.   She said they were having the rumination
because they were trying to bond with the mother but could not on account of
the stimulants.   The action of taking the babies from the mother was
correct, but her reasoning was not.   It was simply a matter of the
stimulants being harmful.   I believe the mothers may have been on hard
drugs, but the result can be the same with any stimulant, anti-depressants
being the most common.      In another case in the newspaper, a six month
old child died of supposedly child abuse by a caretaker for 2 parents, one a
medical doctor and the other not a medical doctor but a professional in the
field.     The caretaker had a very famous lawyer but was sentenced to 50
years inprisonment.   The headline  screamed The mother was not ashamed to
say she was taking anti-depressants.    Somehow I realized that the baby
could have had a seizure and died not by the hand of the caretaker.    I
went to the lawyer and told him what I thought.   He listened and said he
knows she is not guilty as he had her confidence.    He was going to appeal
even  before I came, and the appeal was  successful and she was freed.    I
doubt he used my theory, as it is barely believable, but the outcome was
fortunate.    The parents of course were devastated, but for an innocent
person to be imprisoned for fifty years would have been a terribe injustice.
These are my experiences, knowing them and many others, I cannot help but
make others  aware of what I know, whether they choose to believe it or not.
The telling factor is, is someone  close to the child or person on a
stimulant, then it is time to wonder.   If the answer is no, of course there
are many reasons for illness.    And what is the harm of ceasing
anti-depressants for a day or two, to see if the situation exists.    It
costs nothing and has saved lives though the doctor should be informed.

You cannot prove the cause. Period.

Glad to see that you acknolwedge that your "mind" is closed. Doubtful
that it is truly a 'mind'. This proves it (i.e., that you have no
mind):

This is a really wack topic about ritalin, stimulants etc... next
thing someoen's gonna say is that Ritalin causes Bipolar (OOOPS WAIT a
psychiatrist in NZ said that once) oor or or ! CLAIRITIN CAUSES
CANCER.

STUPIDITY C AUSES CANCER if gail's theory is proven.

HOW? ... >.> if someone is stupid, then they pass on their stupidity
like a cancer.

Ritalin is a hard case to crack, yes .. drug companies won't stop
using it.. and here it's perscribed like water. (New zealand) ... With
so many options available, they still treat ADHD (IN NZ) like nothing,
like it's an excuse..

So i gave up.

When his doctor put him on Mesalamine, it made a world of difference.
The horrid pain is gone.  He still must take Vitamin B12 injections
since it does not get absorbed in his intestines.
