Recent investigative findings have brought to light significant concerns regarding the approval and trial processes of mental health medications. Between 2013 and 2024, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved 16 novel psychiatric drugs. However, the underlying clinical trials that supported these approvals show a mixed record of success and rigor. Out of 73 clinical trials for these drugs, approximately 62% were judged positive by the FDA, but some drugs were approved despite more failed or negative trials than successful ones. For instance, brexipiprazole, pimavanserin, and gepirone had fewer than half of their submitted efficacy trials deemed positive, with one even overturned by higher FDA leadership after initial rejection by medical reviewers. Notably, three drugs were approved based on a single pivotal trial, raising questions about the robustness of evidence required for market entry.
[1]Moreover, despite the ongoing intake of these medications by millions, the scientific understanding of how many psychiatric medications exert their effects remains limited. Most of the approved drugs operate through variations of mechanisms involving serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine systems, pathways known since psychiatric drug development began over half a century ago. There has been little advancement in fundamentally new mechanisms of action, although improvements in safety and tolerability have been made. This stagnation raises concerns about the innovation in psychiatric drug development when the efficacy and safety evidence supporting approval vary greatly and sometimes rely on unclear biological assumptions.[3]
[1]This situation prompts pressing questions: Why have so many mental health medications not gone through more rigorous and conclusive trials before approval? If the basic science behind these medications is not fully understood, how can we be certain that these drugs help patients in meaningful, long-term ways? Psychiatric disorders are complex illnesses with no validated biological biomarkers, making it difficult to measure treatment effects objectively. This scientific uncertainty may partially explain the reliance on clinical scales and the variability in trial outcomes.[1]
[3]Additionally, some critics argue that some clinical trials lack a true placebo group, as "placebo" groups often consist of patients withdrawn from other psychiatric medications, thus complicating interpretation of drug efficacy. Research on first-episode psychosis patients, for example, lacks placebo-controlled trials altogether, making it difficult to confirm short-term benefits conclusively.
[2]In summary, the recent disclosures about the variability and limitations in trials preceding FDA approval for mental health medications underscore an urgent need for greater transparency, rigorous scientific inquiry, and innovative approaches in psychiatric drug development. Until we clearly understand how these medications work and verify their benefits with solid evidence, patients and practitioners must ask: If these drugs were created with unknown science and incomplete trials, how exactly do they help? Why wasn't more stringent testing required before approval to ensure patient safety and effectiveness?

This essay aims to highlight the current concerns and calls for deeper investigation and clarity in the mental health medication approval process based on recent research and regulatory reviews. If you want, I can provide a detailed list of the specific drugs and trials mentioned in the latest studies. Would you like me to include that information?[2][3]

@Desiree4freedom🇺🇸 If we go back far enough in history we can always find a reason to hate each other. The question we have to ask ourselves is do we keep wanting to relive a history of death and dismemberment or do we want to create for ourselves a better future?

Worried by a "#reading crisis," #Denmark government will eliminate its #salestax on #books, looking to get more citizens buying them, The country's 25% tax on books is currently highest in Europe, stands in stark contrast w countries such as Britain that charge no sales tax on book purchases. "We need to do all we can to fix this reading crisis that has unfortunately spread in recent years," eliminating sales tax on books would cost the state estimated 330 million kroner ($51 million) a year.
I am late to the party, by around 40 years. But I have recently delved into Terry Pratchett's Discworld and although I'm only 2 books into this 41 book epic, I feel this is becoming a new obsession. The world building in these books is wonderful. And I've never sat and giggled to myself as much when reading. These books are weird and wonderful and very silly in the best way. Can we please appreciate Josh Kirby's original artwork for the series and how sick his designs are. The attention to detail is 🔥
welcome! This is almost certainly a controversial opinion, but the books keep getting better. If you like the early ones you will *love* the last ones.
Actually this is one I dislike. In the book Pratchett specifically states, with reference to typical fantasy cover art of the Boris Valejo sort, that Herenna the Henna-haired Harridan wears sensible warm clothing with functional armour on top, not something out of a fetish shop. But Kirby doesn't seem to have read that bit.
I too came a few decades late to Terry Pratchett and now I love Discworld! I'm only about 10 novels in so far but Death is definitely my favourite character. 💀
