[edit] Pharmaceutical Assassination

I will attempt to get USA Today's permission to reprint here.

No need for a reprint. That is a very subjective story indeed. JFW | T@lk 22:57, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
Subjective to whom, you? We know of your opinion. It doesnt look good. Alphaquad 13:49, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Seizure Causing Poison

This is attributable to a reliable published source and is therefore necessary to include for the safety hospital patients.

I don't disagree with the statement from that document of "Numerous case reports of severe adverse effects including acute dystonias, akathisia, tardivedyskinesia, NMS". Please find a suitable primary source. JFW | T@lk 14:42, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
Have you read the page as it presently stands? It includes seizures and the extrapyramidal side-effects. Not that I've ever seen a case in my career; UK general practitioners use Stemetil a lot. JFW | T@lk 14:44, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
At least you left the links, thank you for that. I have perhaps had some meager positive impact. It's too bad most people wont look here but good for the industry lunatics.

I don't need to be lectured on fair use, but I dispute that this particular edit constitutes fair use. Is there anything wrong with just an URL? Given that this is a talk page, not encyclopedia content? JFW | T@lk 22:20, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
Yes, phenothiazines may cause some very nasty side effects. As JFW said, this is already in the article. What's your point? Fvasconcellos 14:57, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
Side effects? I think you mean permanent neurological damage. Alphaquad 00:43, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
Permanent? JFW | T@lk 22:20, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] IUPAC name / structure

As the name refers to the maleate salt, should the structure have that drawn in too? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.149.220.229 (talk • contribs) 17:51, 16 June 2007

Actually, I've changed the IUPAC name, which is probably best since the rest of the information referred to the free base. Fvasconcellos (t·c) 21:02, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
