H1N1 (Swine Flu) scaremongering tactics

There is a need to analyze, and be informed of the scaremongering tactics of governmental agencies and WHO health officials.

In order to redress this, please read this and preceding articles.

Scientists and doctors worldwide are protesting against this vaccine, openly speaking up about its dangers and inefficacy. Read the next article, Australia and protesting scientists!!

Analyzing the propaganda by WHO and governmental officials, the "pandemic" seems to be nothing more than scaremongering.

Oh, and did I mention, pigs can fly?

Rap with the Viral Attack




It is impossible to estimate those affected with swine flu in the UK (and elsewhere). A help line was set up, people being diagnosed over the phone based on reporting sore throat, flu like symptoms and slight temperature. They were told to collect Tamifu!!!

Statistical manipulation is obvious and crude in this particular instance!!

Sinister, how will anyone know what is happening to those who are quarantined under civilian and/or military jurisdiction in the USA? What assurance of their "safety?"

Remember that during the Spanish Flu "pandemic" Greece was the only EU country at the time to refuse mass vaccination program which resulted in ZERO death from Spanish Flu.

Reading preceding articles concerning the manipulation and gross misconduct of health officials, leads to one conclusion: [b]PROPAGANDA and POPULATION CONTROL[/b]!!

Be very aware, and make an "informed" decision concerning the vaccine.

The H1N1 Swine Flu Pandemic: Manipulating the Data to Justify a Worldwide Public Health Emergency

by Michel Chossudovsky

"If the information is conceptually incorrect or incomplete at the outset, predictions and/or simulations will be inevitably be biased.

Without systematic lab confirmation, it is impossible to specify the nature of the virus because the symptoms of H1N1 are broadly similar to those of common influenza. In other words, do the data collected and transmitted by the states to the CDC confirm cases of H1N1 swine flu or do they indicate the prevalence of seasonal influenza?

The CDC posits that the data sent to them by the states is "underestimated". It then hikes up these figures of "unconfirmed" cases, many of which are cases of seasonal influenza. The "corrected figures" are then inserted into the model:

Using this approach [CDC model], it is estimated that more than one million people became ill with novel H1N1 flu between April and June 2009 in the United States. The details of this model and the modeling study will be submitted for publication in a peer reviewed journal. (Ibid)

The model is then used to predict the spread of swine flu and to justify a national health emergency. "Swine flu could strike up to 40 percent of Americans over the next two years and as many as several hundred thousand could die if a vaccine campaign and other measures aren't successful." (Official Statement of the US Administration, Associated Press, 24 July 2009).

Anybody who is familiar with model building and computer simulations, is acutely aware that if the data and assumptions which are fed into the model are incorrect at the outset, the results will inevitably be biased.

What we are dealing with is a process of statistical manipulation, which has far-reaching implications and which could potentially create an atmosphere of panic, particularly if it is coupled, as in the UK, with announcements that "mass graves are being set up to deal with a rising death toll."

......Based on the model's "predictions", mass vaccination of half of the US population is required, with the possible provision for quarantines under civilian and/or military jurisdiction. In the case of the United Kingdom, confirmed by British press reports, the government has predicted a rising death toll requiring the provision of mass graves.

Doctors warn "Swine Flu" vaccines poses too many risks, (from Australia).

MARK COLVIN: The country's top infectious diseases body has written to the Government to warn that the swine flu vaccine is being distributed too hastily, with too many risks for the public.

The Australasian Society for Infectious Diseases says the vaccine will come in multi-dose vials.

It says these have been shown to transmit infection, spread HIV and hepatitis and even cause death.

The Federal Health Minister Nicola Roxon says the Government expects to receive two million doses by the end of next week, and a widespread immunisation program could start by mid-September.

But the infectious diseases doctors say the swine flu threat has now passed, and there's no need for urgent mass vaccination.

Dina Rosendorff reports

DINA ROSENDORFF: It's unusual to hear a doctor speak out like this:

TOM GOTTLIEB: To rush to a massive vaccination using multi-dose vials that have been associated with problems in the past, seems too hasty and perhaps not measured enough for our society.

DINA ROSENDORFF: Dr Tom Gottlieb is the President of the Australasian Society for Infectious Diseases, which represents about 400 clinicians nationally. Cont/... http://www.abc.net.au/pm/content/2008/s2662248.htm

Doctors scrutinize WHO Swine Flu Vaccine

Some Say While Severe Swine Flu Exists, Warnings May Be Overblown

ABC News

The World Health Organization warned Friday that doctors around the world are now reporting a severe form of swine flu that goes straight to the lungs of otherwise healthy young people -- but some infectious disease experts said the alarm could be unwarranted. Cont/...

.....

But infectious disease experts from both inside and outside the government say that the phrasing used by WHO raises some questions -- particularly because the existence of such a form of the disease is not a new development.

"WHO is certainly putting the fear of [God] in people with this type of release," said William Muraskin, a professor of urban studies at Queens College in New York, who is a specialist in international health. "The description by the WHO is similar to lung infections that claimed so many young people during the 1918 pandemic." http://abcnews.go.com/Health/SwineFluNews/story?id=8438883

Poll

Big Pharma blames CNS symptoms from Lariam, Fluoroquinolones antibiotics or other meds, on either (1) patient suffered from "undetected" psychiatric symptoms prior to the Adverse Reaction (ADR) or (2) that the patient was already taking Anti-Depressants (ADs).

Is it not suspicious that Air Force Pilots or Commercial Airline Line Pilots are advised against taking Lariam??

Compounds in both Lariam and Fluoroquinolones antibiotics are known to act on Gaba receptors, and 5-HTP receptors in the case of Lariam. Notwithstanding the fact, that little is known about neuronal circuitry and its receptors, proteins, neurotransmitters, neurochemicals, and ion channels, prescribing psychotropics will cause more damage.

There are alternatives to psychotropics, safe, effective, and non-addictive!

Be responsible for your health, research, be informed. Those CNS symptoms were chemically induced. Check out the articles about psychotropic drugs published on this blog on 21 July 2009!!

Thank you for doing the poll.

Swine Flu

Moving on from Lariam/Mefloquine and fluoroquinolones,
on to H1N1 (Swine Flu) vaccine and Tamiflu.

From all the research I have done so far, the risks outweighs the benefit, in particular
for us. For those of you still in doubt, read on two of the best articles I could find,
supporting my views. I have yet come across a coherent argument of why those
are necessary, other, than for greed and profit.

The first article give a clear idea of the politics behind the Swine flu, Tamiflu
and vaccines.

I wrote this on FAVC and copied/pasted it here:

Investigation will lead to nowhere, the story will be buried as usual. Bird Flu Accidentally Sent As Vaccine Officials at the World Health Organization and and the European Centre for Disease Control have launched an investigation into how live Avian Bird Flu virus (both H5N1 and H3N2) was accidentally shipped to 18 countries as Bird Flu vaccine. Deerfield, Illinois-based pharmaceutical company Baxter International Inc. accidentally sent an “experimental virus material,” which mixed H3N2 seasonal flu viruses and unlabelled H5N1 viruses, to an Austrian research firm, Avir Green Hills Biotechnology in late December. That company then shipped portions of the mixture to sub-contractors in the Czech Republic, Slovenia and Germany. Subcontractors in the Czech Republic caught the error in early February when testing the shipment on ferrets. The animals died from the inoculation, indicating a live Bird Flu virus. Officials say the 37 people who were exposed to the virus have so far not shown any signs of infection. However, an Austrian news article from February 11 reports a Vienna hospital treated 19 outpatients on February 9 because of exposure to “bird flu virus.” The article said no one was sick, there was no evidence of infection, and the females were prophylaxed with antivirals (presumably Tamiflu). People infected with a mixture of H5N1 and H3N2 viruses could become incubators for a hybrid virus able to transmit easily to and among people. Baxter International Inc. follows a BSL3 (Biosafety Level 3) protocol which prevents the cross-contamination of materials. “It was a combination of just the process itself, (and) technical and human error in this procedure,” said Christopher Bona, Baxter’s director of global bioscience communications. Bona would not give any more information due to “trade secrets”. The mishap comes at an unfortunate time for Baxter International Inc., which was just about to secure a Euopean-wide license for the Avian Bird Flu vaccine. http://tinyurl.com/cpbnmx From The Times mag: http://tinyurl.com/mjxk9d The second article focuses on Tamiflu and its risks, associated with stroke and CNS symptoms: From all the evidence so far, including the Czech Health Officials complaing of it being man made, and no way was it "accidental", it might be conjectural on my part, but it smacks of cover up here...Now, if suspicious Czechs Health Officials had not injected the ferret, with the jab to begin with, this would have gone undetected and caused many deaths. Swine flu may have started in laboratory, expert says 20 May 2009 The man who helped develop the Tamiflu flu anti-viral drug believes the swine flu epidemic has been caused by human error. Adrian Gibbs says the H1N1 virus may have been man-made and was passed to humans after a handling mistake ] at a laboratory. Gibbs, who has studied germ evolution for 40 years, is to publish a paper about his theory, which he developed after studying the swine flu virus’s genetic blueprint. “One of the simplest explanations is that it’s a laboratory escape,” he told reporters from Bloomberg. Viruses are developed on eggs, and Gibbs believes the new H1N1 strain may have accidentally evolved before being passed to humans. He has] discovered that the strain mutates three times faster than the most closely-related viruses found in pigs, which suggests it had evolved outside of swine. It would not be the first time a virus has ‘escaped’ from a laboratory. Earlier this year the avian flu virus made its way into a consignment of ] seasonal flu vaccines, which were destined for around 18 countries in Europe. Some scientists also suspect that the Russian flu outbreak of 1977 was started when a virus was accidentally released from a laboratory. (Source: Bloomberg.com. May 13, 2009). Vaccines infected with deadly avian flu virus 12 March 2009 A large consignment of seasonal flu vaccine, which was due to be circulated to 18 European countries, has been infected with deadly live avian flu virus. ] Had the contamination not been detected, the vaccines may have started an avian flu pandemic, killing hundreds of thousands of people. The World Health Organization is carrying out investigations at the Austrian research facility of Baxter International, the pharmaceutical company, where the contamination happened. Baxter has confirmed that the consignment contained live H5N1 virus, which causes avian flu. A researcher in the Czech Republic discovered the lethal contamination when laboratory ferrets that he had injected with the H3N2 flu vaccine suddenly died. The H5N1 virus becomes lethal as an injection only when it is mixed with H3N2, a process known as reassortment. The WHO investigation team says it doesn’t have evidence to suggest that Baxter had deliberately reassorted the two viruses, but “what remains unanswered are the circumstances surrounding the incident in the Baxter facility,” a WHO official said. Despite dire warnings from health officials, no avian flu pandemic has occurred as human-to-human infection hasn’t happened. So far, several hundred people have died after catching the virus from poultry, although governments have warned that millions would die if people could infect each other. Baxter is currently working on a new type of avian flu vaccine, called Celvapan, which is based on cell culture technology. The technology, which is being developed at Baxter’s research facility in the Czech Republic, by-passes the conventional process where a virus is incubated in chicken eggs. Instead, Baxter is working with the ‘native’ virus that does not need to be modified. Last year the vaccine passed the first two phases of safety trials, and Baxter announced that “Celvapan combines innovative science and breakthrough production technology with the aim of protecting people against an H5N1 pandemic flu infection.” (Sources: Toronto Sun, February 27, 2009; New England Journal of Medicine, 2008; 358: 2573-84).] This article was written by Dr Dr. Anders Bruun Laursen giving an option towards the end of the article, should the vaccine be compulsory! There seems to be quite a lot of uncertainty about the technical nature of Swine Flu (H1N1) vaccines. As a medical doctor, I wish to clarify a number of important issues: First, we should talk about vaccines instead of vaccine, since the vaccines vary as for their compositions and even their ways of being dispensed: some by injection, another by the nose. I think the fears as for the vaccines can be referred to: 1. the adjuvants – in particular squalene which was in all probability responsible for the Gulf War syndrome, 2. the virus antigen´s condition (dead, attenuated, live) 3. a deeply rooted mistrust in our politicians and the vaccine producers´ motives and morals: e.g. Baxter´s live bird flu virus last Winter (12), the Bayer AIDS haemophiliac product scandal (15). First it is necessary to understand, that pandemic vaccines are made according to two procedures: 1. The Developement of a totally new vaccine from scratch. This takes more time, administration and testing than mock up vaccines (see below). 2. A Mock-up vaccine is a vaccine with all the adjuvants of the pandemic vaccine – but without the killed or attenuated pandemic virus. (1) This virus is – until the pandemic virus is known – a different, attenuated known potentially pandemic virus, in the case of the Pandemrix vaccine for the EU it is an attenuated H5N1 bird flu virus. This is the mock-up vaccine. When the nature of the pandemic swine flu virus (H1N1) is known, it replaces the H5N1 virus in an attenuated form, the adjuvants being left unchanged. Until now mock-up vaccine test-vaccinations have been going on on voluntary ”human guinea pigs.” Since most of the contents of the vaccine has already been approved, the approval of the pandemic vaccine is easier to implement. After the exchange of virus in the vaccine, the company will have to apply for a ”variation”. However, this is just a matter of form, since such a variation approval is given by the EU within 5 days – which means that there is no objective testing of the vaccine requiring official approval. The safety is entirely left to the vaccine producer, who has been granted immunity to actions of damages due to expected side effects (2). So, as you see, there is no confusion with regard to swine flu and bird flu viruses. But there is another important consideration: the role of squalene. The average quantity of squalene injected into the US soldiers abroad and at home in the anthrax vaccine during and after the Gulf War was 34.2 micrograms per billion micrograms of water. According to one study, this was the cause othe Gulf War syndrom in 25% of 697.000 US personnel at home and abroad. (3). You can find this table of FDA analyses from the Gulf War lots on The Military Vaccine Resource Directory website (4) a.. AVA 020 - 11 ppb squalene (parts per billion) > b.. AVA 030 - 10 ppb squalene > c.. AVA 038 - 27 ppb squalene > d.. AVA 043 - 40 ppb squalene > e.. AVA 047 - 83 ppb squalene These values were confirmed by Prof. R. F. Garry (5) before the House of Representatives. Prof Garry was the man to discover the connection between the Gulf War syndrome and squalene. According to his findings, the Gulf War syndrome was caused by squalene, which was banned by a Federal Court Judge in 2004 from the Pentagon´s use. (6) As seen on p. 6 of this EMEA document (7), the Pandremix vaccine contains 10,68 mg of squalene per 0,5 ml. This corresponds to 2.136.0000 microgrammes pr. billion microgrammes of water, i.e. one million times more squalene per dose than in (4). There is any reason to believe that this will make people sick to a much higher extent than in 1990/91. This appears murderous to me. I have contacted the Danish National Health Service: They are to decree mass vaccinations in Denmark - and yet they knew nothing about the composition of the Pandremix vaccine. Interesting.. Then I addressed the Danish Medicinal Agency. They admitted that the Pandremix vaccine from GlaxoSmithKline does contain squalene and thimerosal. They have not rejected my remark that the squalene concentration is dangerous. In contrast, the AstraZeneca MedImmune nasal vaccination (8) avoids squalene side effects. So far the use of squalene has been banned by the FDA in the US according to Der Spiegel (9). However, this may not last long (10). "Clearly bypassing the FDA requirements for safety testing of these new adjuvants and the vaccines which contain them puts the entire population at risk for serious, possibly life threatening side effects, particularly any of the 12,000 paid trial participants (6,000 children) who are unfortunate enough to be randomized into the adjuvant containing groups.” Still, on July 23, 2009, the FDA announced, “Currently, no U.S. licensed vaccine contains the adjuvants MF-59 or ASO3 (squalene). It is expected that a novel influenza A (H1N1) vaccine manufactured using the same process as U.S. licensed seasonal inactivated influenza vaccine but administered with MF-59 or ASO3 will be authorized for emergency use only.” Furthermore, “Two of the manufacturers (Novartis and GSK) have proprietary oil-in-water adjuvants (MF-59 and ASO3, respectively) which have been evaluated in a number of clinical studies including studies with influenza vaccines. These manufacturers will include an evaluation of the utility of the adjuvant for dose sparing and higher effect in their clinical studies.“ "The same document indicates that vaccines containing the un-approved adjuvants will be given to 100 children 6 months to 3 years old, 100 children 3 years old to 8 years, 100 individuals 18 to 64 years old and 100 individuals 65 and older in each of the multiple clinical trials. In addition, 700 individuals in each trial will be given non-adjuvanted vaccine". Now for the immunological side effects of squalene to occur takes months to years – and cannot be evaluated after up to 6 weeks of observation. Der Spiegel (9) calls the mass vaccinations on Europeans a gigantic cost free experiment to provide the FDA with mass vaccination experience to clear the track for sale in the US. EMEA admits that side effects can only be found through extensive vaccination campaigns! (1). Here is what EMEA (4) has to say about risks of GSK Pandemrix: EMEAs Pandemrix is commonly or very commonly associated with a range of local and systemic adverse reactions but these are not often of severe intensity and the safety profile would not preclude the use of the vaccine in healthy adults aged 18-60 years or > 60 years. However, there are some adverse reactions known to be very rarely associated with influenza vaccines and it is currently not possible to predict if higher rates might be observed with Pandemrix compared with, for example, seasonal influenza vaccines. Dr Keiji Fukuda, the WHO's flu chief, today warned about the potential dangers of the untested vaccine (11): "There are certain areas where you simply do not try to make any economies. One of the things which cannot be compromised is the safety of vaccines." Which is exactly what is going on! What I do not know is, if they are going to leave the attenuated (or live - Baxter (12)) bird flu vaccine - or to totally replace it by the H1N1 virus. Other severe, but rare side effects are autism in children due to thimerosal (13) and the Guillan-Barré syndrome seen with 400-500 Americans after the 1976 unnecessary mass vaccinations against swine flu (14) – videos. As for additional severe side effects of squalene – see Stephen Lendman (15). [b]My advice: If you are forced to be vaccinated against the harmless swine flu (H1N1) – demand a vaccination with the AstraZeneca nasal vaccine MedImmune (8)– thereby avoiding squalene side effects.[/b] References (1) EMEA http://www.emea.europa.eu/pdfs/human/pan...._46147609en.pdf (2) Global Research 20 July http://tinyurl.com/ljbj3g (3 Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_War_syndrome (4) The Military Vaccine Resource Directory http://www.mvrd.org/showpage.cfm?ID=69 .

Tamiflu puts 600,000 at greater risk of a stroke By Daniel Martin Last updated at 10:47 AM on 19th August 2009 GPs have been put on alert over fears that Tamiflu can put some people at greater risk of suffering a stroke. A Government watchdog is concerned that the anti-swine flu drug can interact with the blood-thinning medication warfarin, which is taken by more than 600,000 people in the UK. The combination can dangerously thin the blood, putting patients at risk of uncontrolled bleeding which can lead to a stroke. The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency has already received reports of such cases and has asked health professionals to watch out for more. Last night an expert warned that the dangers have been increased because people given Tamiflu over the national flu hotline are not being warned properly about the possible warfarin risk. The MHRA has now received 418 reports of suspected adverse reactions to Tamiflu, including two deaths. Of these reactions,12 were are due to interactions with warfarin. The number may be small, but the MHRA is sufficiently concerned to place all such reports under 'close review'. It is the latest concern to emerge about Tamiflu, the powerful antiviral handed out by the Government to people with swine flu or flu-like symptoms. Last week, Oxford scientists advised parents not to let children take it because the risks outweighed the benefits. A recent study found Tamiflu caused side effects such as nausea and nightmares in children. On Monday it emerged that ministers ignored a warning from their own advisors that handing out Tamiflu widely could do more harm than good, especially as most swine flu victims suffer only mild symptoms. Health secretary Andy Burnham went ahead with the flu hotline, which lets people get Tamiflu by answering questions from call centre staff who have no medical training. More than 500,000 packs were handed out in the first two weeks. The concern about warfarin centres on the INR rate, which measures how long it takes the blood to clot. The higher the rate, the more the risk of uncontrolled bleeding. Patients on warfarin need regular monitoring to ensure they stay in a safe range.

High percentage of side effects from Lariam

Not a trip I would recommend, although a little late for some of us. Would it not best to abstain from taking Lariam/Mefloquine? After all, several report taking Lariam and suffering from
Malaria...

Unexpected frequency, duration and spectrum of adverse next term events after therapeutic dose of previous mefloquine next term in healthy adults

Abstract

The frequency and spectrum of previous termadversenext term events associated with the antimalarial therapeutic regimen of previous termmefloquinenext term (MQ) (750 and 500 mg at an interval of 6 h) was assessed in 22 healthy volunteers who were monitored for 21 days following drug administration. An unexpected high frequency of side effects of any grade were reported by all 22 subjects. The most commonly reported symptoms were vertigo (96%), followed by nausea (82%) and headache (73%). Participants suffering from severe (grade 3) vertigo (73%) required bed rest and specific medication for 1 to 4 days. More females than males reported severe previous termadverse reactions.next term The majority (77.3%) of the participants (f: 8/12, m: 9/10) showed symptom resolution within 3 weeks (510 h) after drug administration. Biochemical and haematological findings stayed within the normal range of values, but showed nevertheless a significant rise of Na, Cl, Ca, bilirubin, GGT and LDH. The unexpectedly high frequency and severity of previous termadverse reactionsnext term after normal therapeutic dosage of MQ in healthy subjects may influence future recommendations regarding the use of MQ for stand-by treatment of suspected malaria in travellers.

Lariam causes neuronal death

This article clearly show damage causing neuronal death. The author is taking
a cautionary approach, though, implying neurological dysfunction prior to
taking Lariam. We know otherwise.....I suppose, this why I am opposed to
psychotropics. Again, I am not judgemental of those who do, but fear
even more neuronal damage, delaying new neuronal circuitry take place.

Epileptogenic potential of mefloquine chemoprophylaxis: a pathogenic hypothesis.

Nevin RL.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Mefloquine has historically been considered safe and well-tolerated for long-term malaria chemoprophylaxis, but prescribing it requires careful attention in order to rule out contraindications to its use. Contraindications include a history of certain neurological conditions that might increase the risk of seizure and other adverse events. The precise pathophysiological mechanism by which mefloquine might predispose those with such a history to seizure remains unclear. PRESENTATION OF THE HYPOTHESIS: Studies have demonstrated that mefloquine at doses consistent with chemoprophylaxis accumulates at high levels in brain tissue, which results in altered neuronal calcium homeostasis, altered gap-junction functioning, and contributes to neuronal cell death. This paper reviews the scientific evidence associating mefloquine with alterations in neuronal function, and it suggests the novel hypothesis that among those with the prevalent EPM1 mutation, inherited and mefloquine-induced impairments in neuronal physiologic safeguards might increase risk of GABAergic seizure during mefloquine chemoprophylaxis. Testing and implications of the hypothesis Consistent with case reports of tonic-clonic seizures occurring during mefloquine chemoprophylaxis among those with family histories of epilepsy, it is proposed here that a new contraindication to mefloquine use be recognized for people with EPM1 mutation and for those with a personal history of myoclonus or ataxia, or a family history of degenerative neurologic disorder consistent with EPM1. Recommendations and directions for future research are presented. http://tinyurl.com/lcrgwh

Lariam side effects

Through legistlation in 2002, Roche included side effects and adverse reactions to Lariam/Mefloquine for patients inserts. The Department of Veterans also published a list of side effects causing long term damage. This includes, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, endocrinological, cognitive, neuropsychiatric, sensory system, haematological, kidneys, liver, skin, neurological, mitochondria, ions channels, showing how toxic this chemoprophylaxis can be! Connecting the dots with ChemoProphylaxis??

Note that on all inserts in packaging, side effects are described as "Rare" or "Infrequent" does not reflect some published articles, or what is being reported. More on FDA's and MRHA's reporting system later.

Unfortunately, many symptoms are delayed and can manifest themselves sometimes two or more years after taking it.

Furthermore, taking one pill only, can and do cause listed above damage to many. Medical Doctors are very reluctant to give a diagnosis of Lariam toxicity, making it very difficult for patients to access care, except for psychotropics, if suffering from neuropsychiatric symptoms. These drugs are not helpful long term, are addictive and cause more damage to neuronal circuitry. Overall, Medical Doctors, rarely, if ever, diagnose prescribed drug Adverse Reactions. They are dismissive of correlation of symptoms and side effects!!

Factors involved in side effects and adverse reactions are poorly understood. Extraneous variables include what was eaten on that day, alcohol consumption, the temperature, gender, ethnicity, weight, CPYs in the liver, digestive system, kidneys, detoxification Phase I & Phase II, genetic polymorphisms, and pharmacodynamics/pharmacokinetics of Lariam. In no way, does this mean that there is a genetic malfunction, rather, that Lariam is a very toxic drug, and those who do not react are very lucky. This could be due to the fact that during that period of time, they were able to avoid Lariam reaching toxic level by excreting it more efficiently. It is worth noting that most drugs are only effective for less than 10% fo the general population.

It is not feasible to manufacure any pharmaceutical drugs to suit everybody's unique biochemistry.

Published research focuses on neuropsychiatric and neurological side effects, in particular suicides, but lacking in other long term side effects such as cardiovascular, which can be devastating.

I have an old pdf format of a document concerning long terms effects of Lariam from the Department of Veterans Affairs, which was not found on their site today. Has it been deleted? Those who wish to have a copy, please register, leave a comment with your email address, requesitng your email address to be deleted before publishing your comments.

For those of you suffering neuropsychiatric symptoms, there is hope. These symptoms will fade in time, specially for those who are able to resist the lure of psychotropics. Do not allow psychiatrists convince you that you had an underlying psychiatric condition which suddenly appeared after taking Lariam. Or that you are personality Type A, driven and ambitious, thriving on stress, etc. Lariam does NOT work that way.

Some medications, in particular Lariam and Fluoroquinolones are known to cause chaos in neuronal circuitry. Moreover, there is little knowledge concerning neuronal circuitry, but sufficient data and research show serious damage to the central nervous system, can and do occur by certain types of medications.

The next post will focus on Lariam pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics.

Information and published papers concerning Lariam/Mefloquine were NOT copied from any other Lariam sites, but researched from the orignial source.
