Description
The Zyprexa Papers by Jim Gottstein is a gripping account of the author's role in exposing Eli Lilly's concealment of the life-threatening effects of its top-selling drug, Zyprexa. In 2006, Gottstein obtained documents from Alaska lawyer that revealed Eli Lilly had concealed the true risks of Zyprexa and was illegally promoting its use on vulnerable populations. Gottstein recounts his battles with Eli Lilly, including a court case in which he was accused of conspiring to steal the documents. He also sheds light on how a small group of psychiatric survivors helped spread the documents online, making it impossible for Eli Lilly to track their source. This book provides a detailed and accessible explanation of complex legal maneuvering and the impact on patients like Bill Bigley, whose ordeal led to the exposure of the Zyprexa Papers. Through his first-hand account, Gottstein reveals new details about this shocking scandal and its aftermath. The result is a riveting and informative read that sheds light on the dark side of pharmaceutical marketing and the power of individual action.
