Top 20 Reported Adverse Reactions

A very interesting post on the Psychiatry, It's A Killing. blog from April 30th 2009.

The author of the blog has compiled a list of the top 20 adverse drug reactions, the author has also pointed out that the FDA's Jerry Phillips said in the year 2000:

"In the broader area of adverse drug reaction data, the 250,000 reports received annually probably represent only 5% of the actual reactions that occur."

No surprises which medication comes out on top:
