I am delighted to have my first article in the New Humanist: on why the war on is scientifically unsound and is hurting the most vulnerable in our society. You can see the subtitle - “Defending antidepressants” on the top right corner of the cover.

Yes, we are soon to gat our second Melbourne Mobile Stroke Unit in the Monash catchment area, building on the 6 years of success with our RMH MSU. In metropolitan Australia, we estimate a need for 1 MSU per 1 million population.

Clozapine is not dangerous, nor difficult to use in patients with psychotic symptoms in Parkinson's disease, and yet it is woefully underprescribed. Instead we use quetiapine, a drug that failed 3 x DB RCTs. We need to do more to understand the barriers. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
