The hazards of modern medicine have been documented by thousands of articles published in medical journals. Utilising the complete knowledge of Natural Law, the Natural Law Party offers a complete health care programme that will eliminate these hazards and create a disease-free society. High heap of scientific research papers on the hazards of modern medicine.
Iatrogenic diseases pose a major threat to health throughout the world.
The horrifying side-effects of 'disaster drugs' such as practolol, clioquinol, phenylbutazone, benoxaprofen and, above all, thalidomide have so dominated medical and public thinking about iatrogenic disease that they have overshadowed the more insidious but ultimately much greater damage done by agents considered safe enough for widespread use. That is most certainly not true. Thus, while extreme cases of drug toxicity may be terminated by withdrawal of the offending agent, the creeping destruction wrought by many drugs with 'acceptable' safety records goes on unchecked. Magnified through massive use, the hazards of such agents have become a much greater source of morbidity and mortality than any of the much more publicised drug disasters. Of great concern is the fact that most adverse drug reactions go unrecorded.
