One hot summer day, a man in a business suit running wildly down a busy street attacks a woman and her toddler, neither of whom have ever seen him before . . .  As he waits in his pickup truck for his wife to finish shopping, a man decides to take the shotgun off its rack, go inside the mall, and open fire on total strangers . . . While waiting to see her doctor, a woman takes a knife from her purse and begins stabbing others in the waiting room. Something is making people become violent and murderous . . . something they all have in common. When Eli Dunbar discovers what it is, he becomes afraid, because it is something he has in common with them--a drug prescribed to him by his psychiatrist. And now Eli is a ticking time bomb. Do you know all of the risks your prescription drugs might pose? Does your doctor? Or has the manufacturer hidden them from the public in the interest of profits? Meds . . . a thriller with deadly side effects.… (meer)

A compelling tale, and quite relevant in these days of non stop commercial bombardments with drug ads for everything from cholesterol pills to a prescription to thicken your eyelashes. Yes that is a real thing.
So many drugs, so many side effects and risks, and so many warnings of what can happen if you suddenly stop taking your pills, yet millions of people flock to doctors asking for the latest pill they've seen advertising. Drug companies count on this, hence all the ads that tell you to "ask your doctor about (insert name of latest pill) today!"
In "Meds" Ray Garton presents us with a frightening (and not so far fetched) idea of what could happen if people were suddenly unable to refill their prescription for the latest antidepressant and suffered a psychotic break as a result. ( )
