NEW YORK POST: If you’re an American, you’re probably on drugs — or will be someday soon.
A new study reveals that people born in the US today will spend about half of their lives taking prescription drugs.
And for women, the figure is closer to 60% of their lives.
“The years that people can expect to spend taking prescription drugs are now higher than they might spend in their first marriage, getting an education or being in the labor force,” study author Dr. Jessica Ho of the Pennsylvania State University said in a news release. » | Marc Lallanilla | Friday, October 13, 2023
