The student featured in this picture is named Khaliah Shaw, and this 26 year old graduate student was prescribed an anti-seizure medication known as Lamotrigine. In a matter of weeks after taking it, all her hair fell out and up to 90% of her skin had fallen off, the UK Daily Mail has reported. She was in excruciating pain and was put into a medically-induced coma by doctors to manage her endless pain. Also the UK Daily Mail reports:

The reaction left her skin permanently scarred, and she is starting to lose her sight.

Now, Khaliah and many others are suing GlaxoSmithKline for promoting the anti-seizure product without warning of the risks, claiming more than $3.45 million in medical costs.

It comes five years after GlaxoSmithKline shelled out $3 billion in lawsuit for failure to report the drug’s risks – before Shaw’s incident.

The FOX LA news network initially had covered the story with detailed pictures and an account from the victim, but now it is confirmed that the news network pulled the story from their website, apparently bowing to the interests of the pharmaceutical industry that strong-arms all corporate-run media in the United States to blacklist stories about dangerous medications or vaccines.

The original website URL where this story appeared on FOX LA (but has since been removed) is:
