Andy Behrman, a former spokesman for Abilify and Bristol Myers Squibb, discusses his side effects from Abilify, the "wonder drug" of Bristol Myers Squibb.

In 2004, Mr. Behrman, a 42-year-old bipolar patient said it was a miracle drug!  He recounted how a Bristol-Myers drug, called Abilify, had changed his life. Unlike other medicines he had tried, Abilify had no side effects, he said. The testimonial drew a standing ovation. He had only taken the drug a few days when he made that statement.

Wall Street Journal says  there has been a lot of finger pointing; he said, she said, etc.

Andy Behrman now speaks out about ABILIFY and sent a personal note to me today (1/04/10) stating:

Dear Derrick,

Can Abilify kill you? Sure it can.

You have to keep in mind that Abilify is the drug that Bristol Myers Squibb marketed illegally to children and ended up paying a $515 million fine to the U.S. Government.  You certainly won't get a comment from Sonia Choi, Bristol-Myers Squibb's Spokeswoman - - they wish that they had never hired somebody like myself, who after a non-disclosure ended, would tell the truth about how Abilify was marketed and there's plenty more coming!

I read with interest your blog and would be more than happy to speak with you.

Best,

Andy Behrman

That is awesome!  These drug companies are ridiculous in what they'll do for money.  Thank you Andy!
