Sidney Wolfe is a well-known antagonist of the pharmaceutical industry. On one hand, he seems to be well-meaning. On the other hand, he seems to be somewhat unbalanced in his view of the ills of many drugs-- even though, perhaps in some settings, they have problems. His overall assessment seems quite wrong.
If you find the site interesting, there may be helpful information there. However, I wouldn't blindly trust anything I read there-- without checking other sides and taking other, legitimate and authoritative positions seriously. I certainly wouldn't let my choices of drugs be guided by his thoughts, even if knowing them might provide a useful minority view.
