Has Your Child Been Prescribed These!? | Full Documentary | Doctor Who Took Kids Off Drugs, Ep 2
Dr Chris van Tulleken explores why children are taking more prescription drugs than ever before…
He looks into one of the biggest health crises facing young people: Depression. The number of children in Britain being treated with drugs for depression almost doubled from 2005 to 2015. Dr Chris wants to know why so many children are being given these meds and whether they actually work…
He discovers that most anti-depressants are not effective in children, while there is also a very real risk of them having increased harmful thoughts. He meets 15 year-old Jess who is so anxious she hardly leaves her bedroom. Over several months, and with Chris’s help, she takes up Wilderness Therapy. It’s a tough and emotional journey as Jess struggles with school, exams, and every day interactions. But by her 16th birthday Jess discovers she has made amazing progress.
Chris also looks into a medicine that’s rise in use dwarfs even the doubling of anti-depressants for teenagers. Prescriptions for milk formula to treat babies with Cow’s Milk allergy rose by almost 500% in the ten years to 2016 and prescriptions for this formula is now costing the UK's National Health Service over £64 million GBP a year.
When he attends a training day for NHS staff he finds advertising and sponsorship by the same company that makes the formula to treat the allergy! He concludes that we are muddling up advertising with science and healthcare and is shocked that we’re allowing big formula companies to promote this condition, a condition that they profit from treating.
As diagnoses and sales have all gone up, Dr Chris questions whether letting big business get involved in healthcare could get between our children and their health.
