A pharmaceutical drug developed by the United States Army as a supposed treatment and preventive agent for malaria is instead proving to be an ineffective, deadly, psychotropic poison. The drug, known as mefloquine (or Lariam under its brand name), is reportedly causing British soldiers to develop severe depression and mental illness, and some political leaders are now calling for its removal from the official military drugging schedule.

Tory Parliament Member (MP) Johnny Mercer, a former army officer, is demanding that all administration of mefloquine be halted until further research into the drug’s side effects is carried out for the safety of military servicemen. Mercer says he’s received dozens of letters from soldiers and their families who say the drug induced serious health conditions that weren’t present prior to taking the drug.

“I’ve had a letter about once or twice a week from not only constituents but people all over the U.K. who have suffered or know someone who has suffered, they believe, as a result of taking Lariam,” Mercer told the Mirror.

“I just think we need to halt putting this drug out there for our guys and girls to use it until a proper study has been done, so that we know and more importantly our soldiers and their families know that this is a good defense against malaria and they can feel comfortable taking it.”
