I've been posting bout this terrible depression I have been going through. I decided if I keep myself busy I might be able to get through it. I am a childrens writer...unpublished as of now. I have written a series of childrens books about mental illnesses in children for them to read and relate to. I talked to a publisher last year and he suggested that I write to some of the drug companies that manufacture the medications to treat these illnesses, such a depression, OCD, bipolar disorder, panic disorder, among others. Here is where you all can help. I have been researching some of the drugs that I know and looking for the companies that manufacture them. I have quite a few but I'm looking for companies that may manufacture more than one psychiatric drug and so far I have only come up with on company...glaxosmithkline...they make wellburtin and Paxil. If you guys know anything that might help me could you either post it or email me. I think by finishing and trying to publish these books I may be able to help myself as well as others. Thanks so much!

Hello,

If you go to the library and look at the PDR, it has a section that lists meds by drug manufacturer.

However, you remember the stories about Prozac and that it increased suicidal behavior?  It turns out that the maker Eli Lilly knew that their drug was dangerous and they submitted false documents to the FDA to get their drug approved.

A drug company is just another salesman, it's their job to convince you that you need what they sell. And that's not someone who's word i would trust.
