Children of the Cure

Missing Data, Lost Lives and Antidepressants

ByDavid HealyJoanna Le Noury

Children of the Cure tells the story of the only Medical Study that has two publications in the academic literature—telling precisely the opposite story—and how no one is bothered by this. Study 329 was a clinical study that began in 1994 giving a new antidepressant to teenagers. It has become the most famous clinical trial ever, leading to a fraud charge, a $3 billion fine, and a Black Box Warning. Despite now knowing that all trials of antidepressants done in children are negative, sales of these drugs to children and adolescents continue to increase dramatically. This book is written by three members of the team—David Healy, Joanna Le Noury and Julie Wood—who have been behind writing the study and creating the website that hosts a set of documents pharmaceutical companies never expected you would get to see.
