Some of these lawsuits are filed on behalf of individuals who started Paxil — only discover they could not stop taking the drug, even with extraordinary medical intervention. As a consequence these persons have effectively been transformed into lifetime Paxil addicts.

Additionally, hundreds of lawsuits have been filed against Glaxo by families asserting Paxil was the proximate cause of death of their loved one via drug-induced suicide, including many children, and are currently pending, or have been "resolved" by Glaxo.

Of these, the Donald Shell suicide/triple homicide is a standout. In this case, Glaxo, in a classic example of corporate hubris, risked it all by squaring off with the families of the deceased in a backwoods Wyoming courtroom. Glaxo lost the suit, and in spectacular fashion.

This long overdue protest follows in the grand tradition of American democracy. Society has a right, and a duty, to protect itself from companies that make a mockery of the public trust, and which operate in a manner antithetical to the public's health and well-being.
