Medicines can destroy health

These treatments can cause the very problems they are claimed to be treating

IN our article published earlier this year entitled latrogenesis: The Leading Cause of Death? we discussed one aspect of the phenomenon known as iatrogenesis; namely that it is almost certainly the leading cause of death in most, if not all, countries.

Another equally important aspect of this phenomenon is that the medical establishment recognises that medicines produce harmful effects, but these effects are disguised by the use of different labels, the most common of which are: side-effects, allergies, adverse events, and toxicity through overdose.

The Allergy UK web page, Drug Allergy, explains under the heading, What Is A Drug Allergy, that: 'A drug allergy is the abnormal reaction of your immune system to a medication. Any medication over-the-counter, prescription or herbal - is capable of inducing a drug allergy.' The idea that a reaction by the body can be abnormal is disingenuous; the body never makes mistakes.

The description is qualified by the further comment on the web page that: 'A drug allergy is not the same as a drug side-effect, a known possible reaction listed on a drug label. A drug allergy is also different from drug toxicity caused by an overdose of medication.' Interestingly, even the mainstream medical community is questioning the validity of the label 'allergy' with respect to reactions from the use of penicillin-based antibiotics.

According to a BBC article entitled Millions Wrongly Labelled With Penicillin Allergy, pharmacists warn, the Royal Pharmaceutical Society (RPS) is reported to have said: 'Many people confuse antibiotic side-effects with an allergic reaction.'
