Mental Health Treatments
The best medications sold to the public as the ultimate mental health treatments are not in our best interest. If you do not agree just read below.
I read a lot. I read as much as I can. Health, business, finance, internet, and sports are the topics that most interest me. In regards to health related issues, I tend to read almost everything that gets to my hand or computer screen. Today, I am reading and old issue of Forbes Magazine.
Forbes has an interesting article in its November 2009 issue. Yes, I know it is old but it has been in my “pack of magazines” to read. Of course, I also have a big stack of books on my desk. Nevertheless, the November 2009 Forbes edition has some interesting facts about “Mental Health Treatments, Page 68, Nov 2009 Forbes Magazine.”
This article states the following:
- $1,657 Monthly Cost of treating schizophrenia with Seroquel.
- $1,433 Monthly Cost of treating schizophrenia with Zyprexa.
- $1,131 Monthly Cost of treating schizophrenia with old drug (perphenazine).
- NONE Differences in patient quality of life between drugs
** Source: American Journal of Psychiatry, December 2006
The article continues stating that –Last year new schizophrenia drugs such as Seroquel from AstraZeneca and Zyprexa from Eli Lilly edged over cholesterol drugs–. Yet, no immediate difference was noted in patients from these new drugs compared to other older medications.
This article and many other studies suggest that there is just not a better medication for anxiety or any other mental health related disorders.
I urge you to get our free “How to Stop Anxiety Attacks” report as we have included information on the top drugs used, herbal medicine and many other resources for anxiety and depression.
Do not let the major drug houses push a magic pill without you fully knowing its secondary effects and what it really is supposed to be doing.
Get Well.
