RFK Jr attacked for his stance on psychotropic meds
Lawmakers say RFK Jr. is spreading misinformation about psychiatric drugs— but the real threat may be their attempt to silence the debate.
The Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) Commission, established by Executive Order, convened its first meeting last month.
Among the topics discussed was the "threat posed by the prescription of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), antipsychotics, mood stabilisers, and stimulants."
Shortly thereafter, a group of legislators issued a strongly worded letter to Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr, accusing him of "promoting disproven and outright false theories" about these medications—reframing them as "behavioral health medication."
