(Reuters) - More than 17,000 doctors and other healthcare providers have taken money from seven major drug companies to talk to other doctors about their products, a joint investigation by news organizations and non-profit groups found.
Ex-Pharma Sales Reps talks about manipulating doctors to sell more drugs.
Shocking disclosure by Ex Pharma Sales Reps
Listen what she says about: "...The Revolving Door Syndrome..." & "Brain Demage Farmaceuticals..."
In this video Gwen discusses some of the tactics used by some pharmaceutical sales reps
to get doctors to prescribe their drugs.
This included tactics like minimizing harmful side effects to doctors, presenting statistics in a slanted
way, accusing anyone that speaks out against psychiatric drugs as being a
Scientologist, psychological profiling of doctors to best know how to convince
them to prescribe your drugs, etc.
Gwen Olsen spent fifteen years as a pharmaceutical sales rep working for such healthcare giants
as Johnson & Johnson, Bristol-Myers Squibb, and Abbott Laboratories. She enjoyed a
successful, fast-paced career until several conscious-altering experiences began
awakening her to the dangers lurking in every American medicine cabinet. Her
most poignant lessons, however, came as both victim and survivor of
life-threatening adverse drug reactions. After leaving pharmaceutical sales in
2000, Gwen worked in the natural foods industry first as an Account Manager for
Nature's Way, and then as a Regional Sales Manager for Gaia Herbs. She is
currently a writer, speaker, and natural health consultant.
The United
States health care system is killing Americans at an alarming rate, even though
we spend over fifteen percent of the Gross National Product (GNP) on health
care. According to the Journal of the American Medical Association, our health
care outcomes ranked only fifteenth among twenty-five industrialized nations
worldwide. Adverse effects from prescription drugs have become the third-leading
killer of Americans. Only heart disease and cancer claim more lives. We trust
our doctors to inform us and our government to protect us from medical
malfeasance that may put profits ahead of consumer health and safety. But the
fine line walked by the FDA between the interests of the pharmaceutical
manufacturers and the American public has continually been crossed. The result
is the unleashing of an unprecedented number of lethal drugs on the U.S.
market!
Gwen Olsen learned firsthand the danger that lurks in every
American's medicine cabinet, working in the pharmaceutical industry. But her
most poignant education would come as a victim and, ultimately, as a
survivor.
