Lol just think,the pdr contains such minimal information,and the docs still refer to them.Hell we have access to the pdr through google.
Problem is these docs,like my parents,dont seem to be up on the new age,we need a new generation of younger docters who know how to access the extremly VAST information out there,the pdr is simply old and dusty.

We can't ascribe all this to some giant no-profit-in it-conspiracy can we? Tons of people are on Lithium and Klonopin and no one is getting rich from them anymore.
