Make informed consent a legal requirement for mental health treatments

Petition Details

Thousands of children and adults are routinely misled and not informed about the risks and long term harms when prescribed treatments in a growing mental health industry. Additionally the side effect leaflets are extremely vague and do not mention any possibility of permanent harm.

Additional Information

Chemical imbalances, not addictive, safe...

Drug companies do not have to reveal all their trials data.

An NHS Consultant psychiatrist has been campaigning to make disclosing payments to doctors, academics and scientists from drug companies mandatory.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. We're not sure whether you'd like to change the rules about labelling for medicines or something else.

You can find out more about the rules for labelling medicines here:

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could start a new petition asking for drug companies to have to reveal all their trials data, if that's what you'd like to happen.
