Comment on "Our prescription drugs kill us in large numbers".

105 doctor if the answer is “yes” would do wonders to continuity of care. To assume that “we cannot believe a word of what drug companies tell you”1 is making the whole industry and its representatives collectively responsible for the vices of some—this is simply not only not true but also, I believe, not the right thing to say. Summarizing, I regret the author was not asked to change the language of his article and to indicate more clearly the quality of evidence underlying some of his statements and recommendations. However, given the growing relevance of the issues related to the subject of the article I comment on, I appreciate the reasons for providing the opportunity to Professor Gøtzsche to share his opinions without much editorial interference. I believe that the Pol Arch Med Wewn could be a platform for further discussions on relevant topics that generate much controversy among all the practising doctors and patients in Western countries. I hope that other comments on the article by Professor Gøtzsche will be submitted and published in future issues.
