Parents Beware: Dangerous Drugs!
Please note that the following quote is taken from a parent whose child was literally killed by Ritalin. Lest you think this is some harmless drug because it is prescribed so freely to children, read his words, visit his site, and think twice before "medicating" your child.
“Matthew took 10mg of Ritalin three times a day; he was taken away from us for one week for testing by the court. They said they would be doing organic testing. We found out this was never done. When he got home we were court ordered to give him 20mg three times a day.
For the last year of his life he was taking 20mg of Ritalin three times a day.
The Certificate of Death under due to, (or because of) reads, Death caused from Long Term Use of Methylphenidate, (Ritalin). According to Dr. Ljuba Dragovic, The chief pathologist in Oakland County Michigan, upon autopsy, Matthew's heart showed clear signs of small vessel damage, the type caused by stimulant drugs like amphetamines.”
“Children in America are victims of fraud and death. Millions of them are diagnosed with alleged mental disorders because they are easily distracted, or they talk out of turn in class, or because they don't follow directions. Because they have discipline problems, they are subsequently drugged on substances equal to heroin and cocaine.”
“Parents are not told that Ritalin, as a stimulant, can cause the very things it is supposed to cure—inattention, hyperactivity and aggression. When this happens, the child is likely to be given higher doses of the drug, or an even stronger agent, such as the neuroleptics* Mellaril or Haldol, resulting in a vicious circle of increasing drug toxicity.”
