Download Swallowing A Bitter Pill: How Prescription and Over-The-Counter Drug Abuse is Ruining Lives - My Story Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Over 10 million Americans each year experience irresistible triggers from Opioids, over-the-counter medicines, and other prescription drug addictions. The impact it has on friends and family can tear them apart to the breaking point, according to Cindy Rae Mogil-Cooley, founder of Prescriptions Anonymous. Swallowing A Bitter Pill, How Prescription and Over-The-Counter Drug Abuse is Ruining Lives - My Story is a moving account by the author on the prescription addiction process at different stages. After accidentally killing a young man in 1973 while driving sober at the time, Mogil-Cooley began abusing multiple mood-altering prescriptions for nearly 20 years never sharing her traumatic story to a therapist for several years until 1997 when she finally received the treatment therapy she desperately needed and began her process of recovery. Drawing upon her experiences, Mogil-Cooley gives readers' rehabilitation facility resources; how to recognize your own drug addiction or that of a loved one and make an informed action plan for their recovery. Speaking about the book, the author, Mogil-Cooley- an advocate and key-note speaker to healthcare professionals, the pharmaceutical industry, support groups, and state legislatures said, "It is quite rare to find someone talking about the prescription addiction journey. My second edition book gives current statistical information that tells readers how Opioids and other mood-altering prescriptions are addicting thousands and killing others. Don't lose hope. My new book gives first-hand information based on my own experiences and that of other recovering prescription abusers.

After killing a young man with her car, Mogil began abusing such prescription drugs as Darvon, Demerol and Percodan, and remained addicted for over 15 years. Drawing on her own and others' experiences (with numerous first-hand accounts), the author strongly suggests that prescription drug addicts should admit their powerlessness over the addiction, find a good therapist and locate a sponsor (someone who has overcome the same problem) for feedback and support.

We take our medicines on faith. We assume our doctors are well-informed, our drug companies scrupulous, our FDA diligent—and our medications safe. All too often we're wrong. Just how wrong is documented in this critically acclaimed portrait of the international pharmaceutical industry by one of our most highly respected investigative journalists. According to the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), adverse drug reactions are the fourth leading cause of death in America. Reactions to prescription and over-the-counter medications kill far more people annually than all illegal drug use combined. Stephen Fried's wife took a pill for a minor infection—and ended up in the emergency room. Some drug reactions go away in a few hours or days. Diane's did not. This emotionally wrenching experience launched Fried into a five-year examination of the entire pharmaceutical industry, the most profitable legal business in the world. Rigorously documented, Bitter Pills is a full-scale portrait of pill making and pill taking in America today, presented through the powerful human drama of doctors, patients, drug companies, the FDA, and government regulators as they war for control of our medicine cabinets.

Clear, hard-hitting, and authoritative, A Bitter Pill investigates why the medical system - from its one-size-fits-all prevention strategy to hospital stays that don't benefit anyone - is failing old people who are in fragile health and what we can do about it." --Book Jacket.
