Drug Company Financed Biederman on a Tear

In their continuing effort to label every acting-out child with bipolar disorder, Harvard doctor Joseph Biederman and his band of colleagues are now trying to add a THIRD disorder into the mix along with "comorbid" ADHD. 

According to a new journal article in the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, "30% of the bipolar probands with bipolar I disorder met criteria for autism spectrum disorder." 

All the more reason to give autistic kids dangerous brand-named meds that don't do anything except drug them into oblivion, I guess.

  1. Sounds like Biederman didn't get too much of a punishment for not disclosing 1.6 million in pharma funding a few years back...
