Prior to his death, Robin Williams was put on medication to treat early stage Parkinson’s disease. Actor and friend, Rob Schneider, believes it was that medication that lead to Williams’ death.
Now that we can talk about it. #RobinWilliams was on a drug treating the symptoms of Parkinson’s. One of the SIDE-EFFECTS IS SUICIDE!

Influenced by the sadness that came with the death of his friend, Schneider even called the pharmaceutical industry “evil.”

The opinion of CitizensReport.org is as follows: prescription drugs save lives and better the lives of many, but their danger is real. The multi-billion dollar giants of Big Pharma are handsomely rewarded for all the good they do. They make their money by helping needy citizens, and also by convincing thousands of people to self-diagnose through culling advertisements. Showing happy-go-lucky imagery while reading off dangerous side effects is their way of downplaying the risks that come with their medications. Big Pharma believes they should get off scot-free for the suffering that patients endure at the hands of their medicines. They are wrong.

Sorry, I don’t believe that.
There are multiple drugs that have shown to increase suicidal thoughts: atomoxetine, phenytoin and isotretinoin to just name a few.
In Dec. 1999 my (then) cardiologist put me on mega doses of Niaspan (1,500mg. a day). My cholesteral was 165, I was on Lipitor already but he wanted to ‘try’ me on this drug. I was in a very depressed state for 2 months, actually was contemplating suicide until I finally took myself off the Niaspan. The severe depression left (and it wasn’t listed as a side-effect) and when I went to see him he asked how I was doing and I said “Fine now that I took myself off the Niaspan.” His remark? ” Yeah, most people can’t handle that!” I almost went for his throat. I have never felt the same since taking that and I would say he ruined my life. Needless to say I walked out of his office and now have a new cardio doc.
