Ex-Pharma Sales Reps talks about manipulating doctors to sell more drugs.

In this video Gwen discusses some of the tactics used by some pharmaceutical sales reps to get doctors to prescribe their drugs.

This included tactics like minimizing harmful side effects to doctors, presenting statistics in a slanted way, accusing anyone that speaks out against psychiatric drugs as being a Scientologist, psychological profiling of doctors to best know how to convince them to prescribe your drugs, etc.

Gwen Olsen spent fifteen years as a pharmaceutical sales rep working for such healthcare giants as Johnson & Johnson, Bristol-Myers Squibb, and Abbott Laboratories. She enjoyed a successful, fast-paced career until several conscious-altering experiences began awakening her to the dangers lurking in every American medicine cabinet. Her most poignant lessons, however, came as both victim and survivor of life-threatening adverse drug reactions. After leaving pharmaceutical sales in 2000, Gwen worked in the natural foods industry first as an Account Manager for Nature's Way, and then as a Regional Sales Manager for Gaia Herbs. She is currently a writer, speaker, and natural health consultant.

The United States health care system is killing Americans at an alarming rate, even though we spend over fifteen percent of the Gross National Product (GNP) on health care. According to the Journal of the American Medical Association, our health care outcomes ranked only fifteenth among twenty-five industrialized nations worldwide. Adverse effects from prescription drugs have become the third-leading killer of Americans. Only heart disease and cancer claim more lives. We trust our doctors to inform us and our government to protect us from medical malfeasance that may put profits ahead of consumer health and safety. But the fine line walked by the FDA between the interests of the pharmaceutical manufacturers and the American public has continually been crossed. The result is the unleashing of an unprecedented number of lethal drugs on the U.S. market!
Gwen Olsen learned firsthand the danger that lurks in every American's medicine cabinet, working in the pharmaceutical industry. But her most poignant education would come as a victim and, ultimately, as a survivor.

  • It's too bad that ...

    It's too bad that this discussion is soiled by peripheral utopian dreams. Clerly a good social network and an ethical didactic approach to problem solving works far better than most psycho-active drugs. But for the best and the worst of drugs, the ones that save lives always come with other issues. The drugs are simple and people are very very complex.

  • It's important to ...

    It's important to have a smart doctor. My doctor's undergrad degree was in chemistry. The drug reps can't manipulate him. He is conservative about prescribing new drugs, but will act aggressively depending on the patient's condition. I agree we need impartial people at the FDA.

    The drugs are imperfect and drug makers can't avoid problems. The pharm drugs make life better than no drugs at all. Fear of side-effects does not change that. Your video is interesting but it is not accurate. You make comments without clinical evidence such as MRI

    Just goes to show how brainwashed the american psyche (and us aussies more and more) have become. Reps pushing drugs, consumers conditioned to fearing to live without them. Its concerning that when you feel a little sad or are having a bad day at the office, the tv tells you that you need prozac. Who's the junkie now??

    My son told me without Glucose he will back to hospital at least 4 more times. Those drugs block the basic nutrition digestion chemical procedures of human body then attack CNS (Central Nervous System). But. the most difficult part is Detoxification due to the toxic chemical designed to stay in human's fat cells. Even you stop the drugs, it will hunt you again.

  • The FDA and ...

    The FDA and multi-multi-billion dollar psych drug industry is where Scientology (the subject not the Church) receives most of its problems.

    At the top of the pyramid, the same individuals own the mainstream media as own the FDA and drug companies. That's why you see so many drug commercials pushing pushing pushing and certain subjects attacked non-stop. Watch the documentary Big Pharma, Big Bucks on Google Video.
