Agree with you 100%. I've done a lot of reading about this since deciding to taper and get free from the Effexor and what I've read about medical trials has been eye-opening (and hair-raising, too!!). If these things weren't such a financial gold mine, they never would have reached this saturation point with patients and doctors. (When I read the new, updated edition of the book about the Sacklers, Purdue and Oxy, I felt like I was reading another version of the same general approach, but one with fatal consequences.)
