Trail of Paxil Suicides Leads To GlaxoSmithKline

"Reputations for sale are reputations at risk," Dr Godlee concludes.

"We need to make that risk so high it's not worth taking," she states.



In the US, families bereaved due to Paxil suicides have joined together in lawsuits against Glaxo. During the BBC program, Ms Menzies described the tragic case of an 11year-old boy who was prescribed Paxil off-label and hung himself in a closet with the leash of his new puppy.

Stephanie Gatchell and her husband have moved away from the home that holds the pain of their daughter's suicide to try to begin a new life in Ireland, but say they cannot forgive Glaxo for hiding the truth about Paxil. "They just kept on denying and denying and denying," Stephanie said.

She notes that a program like Panorama virtually had to force Glaxo to admit the truth and says, "were they ever going to come out with the truth on their own? I don't think so."

"The decision makers in that company," Stephanie states, "should be brought to justice. They have a lot to explain."
