Answer:

because of profiteering

Explanation:

One of the major issues in the pharmaceutical industries is the lack of proper regulatory structures to monitor the drug manufacture, movement, and distributions. As are result, some drugs, like opioids, find their way to people who do not really need them. One factor in the problem is the money issue. The big drug companies easily use their money to pay their way to the court and defend themselves. Even when the licence fees are high, they still manage to get away with it. This, in turn puts them at a vantage point. The doctors, on the other hand, misinform patients. As a result, the patients take these drugs unknowingly.

Answer:

1. Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely” not only meant that power corrupts how we act and what we do, but corrupts our thinking

2. It's no secret that the pharmaceutical industry wields big influence over doctors who prescribe painkillers. They do this by  aggressive promotion of that painkiller and end up misleading the doctors.

3. Doctors wrote more prescriptions, and more people overdosed on opioids, in counties where drug companies spent more money.

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

A. Children report more cognitive symptoms than adults, is true regarding panic disorders in children.

Explanation:

A. Children report more cognitive symptoms than adults.  

Children with panic disorder are more anxious as compared to adults even when they are not having panic attacks. They report severe cognitive symptoms such as fear of an attack, reluctance to perform well in school, avoiding certain places due to fear of attack called agoraphobia, depression, substance abuse and suicidal behaviors. Hence, children may also need psychotherapy along with panic disorder medications so that they could control their anxiety. Early treatment of panic disorder with cognitive behavioral therapies may prevent complications such as agarophobia, and depression in children.  

B. Children experience only cued panic attacks.  

Both children and adolescents have unexpected panic attacks which might be triggered by anything which causes anxiety in them. They should have varying periods of fear and discomfort which might last minutes to hours.

A child suffering from panic attacks may have heart-attack like symptoms with a racing heart, fear of death and losing control, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, and physical symptoms including nausea, vomiting, dizziness, shortness of breath etc. Moreover, children are also left with an intense fear of another panic attack which might trigger these symptoms. Thus, they become less functional and has a fear of changing places, habits as anything might trigger their symptoms. So, children are more anxious about the physical symptoms ensuing the panic attack and tries their best to avoid it.
