i agree with you that the drug company is too aggressive in promoting drugs for every type of medical disorder. Tamoxifen has only been investigated in a few patients and only time will tell if the drug actually works for bipolar disorder. The other problem is that some investigators act as paid consultants for the industry and there is always a conflict of interest. The current problem is that there are way too many individuals who have bipolar disorder and all the current day treatments remain unsatisfactory. SB
