Drugs don't work?

According tothisMSNBCarticle, the effectiveness of many popular and widely prescribed drugs are in strong doubt. On the heels of the widely watched problems with Vioxx caused heart problems (marketed as drugs like naprosyn came off prescription and became over the counter), new studies show many drugs are no better than alternatives (INCLUDINGEXERCISEand other natural remedies).

According theMSNBC:

"Avandia, may raise the risk of heart attack, and that antidepressants, the most widely prescribed drugs in America, may work no better than placebo."

"the federal Food and Drug Administration expanded use of a top cancer drug, Avastin, to treat breast cancer, on basis of a trial that showed that while the drug slowed the disease, it didn’t impact overall survival."

"millions of...Vytorin users learned that it and its component drug, Zetia, failed to work as widely expected"

I know many drugs are wonderful and help millions, but perhaps spending $30 billion a year by the pharm industry marketing drugs in ever increasing numbers to the general public doesnt translate into clinical effectiveness. And perhaps more people moving the joints of their body fully, on a daily basis, is a better solution than drugs for many problems.
