WELCOME
This web site was developed with the intention of bringing awareness to ordinary Canadians, and the general public worldwide, the dangers of the prescription drug Paxil ( paroxetine HCL ), as it is marketed and known in Canada, and as Seroxat in the United Kingdom (UK), by the GlaxoSmithKline company (GSK).
This site is especially dedicated, in bringing attention to the deaths and damage that Paxil has caused, and continues to cause children, adolescents and young adults.
It would not be necessary to develop and maintain a web site such as this if GSK was an ethical pharmaceutical company, and if our doctors that prescribe Paxil were properly educated in its risks, and did provide proper medical care and monitoring of their young patients.
We truly believe that the medical community has relinquished their responsibilities to their patients, in favour of large pharma companies such as GSK. We believe that this in part due to the slick, multi-billion dollar marketing campaigns targeted toward our primary care physicians.
It is very sad that we can no longer rely on our family doctors to protect us and our children...
Here is just one paragraph from the official GSK Paxil monograph (in quotation marks), a whopping 52 pages no less, describing some of the very nasty negative effects associated with this drug.
