According to Dr Lawrence Diller, a behavioral-developmental pediatrician, and author of "The Last Normal Child," and A Prescription for Disaster: "The extensive prescription of these medications for children, without adequate testing for safety and effectiveness in children constitutes a hidden time bomb that could explode with still more casualties."

"Catastrophic side effects," he says, "may be rare, but they become predictable when we treat so many children with so many drugs."



As for Lilly, the company has billions of reasons to keep the documents buried because they prove beyond any doubt that the company knew about the health problems caused by Zyprexa and intentionally kept the information hidden while it influenced doctors to write off-label prescriptions for million of consumers in the name of the almighty dollar.

ZYPREXA WILL SHORTEN MY LIFE

The now notorious Zyprexa diabetes connection is elaborated at thousands of pages on line.

My own local clinic and clinics everywhere have stopped dispensing Zyprexa except as a PRN for acute cases.

Eli Lilly's zyprexa gravy train will stall soon enough.

I am Daniel Haszard 4 year zyprexa user who got diabetes from it. http://www.zyprexa-victims.com
