Скачать или смотреть Thalidomide: When a “Safe” Drug Became a Global Tragedy – Soft-Spoken Sleep Documentary

This calm, soft-spoken documentary tells the true story of thalidomide — a drug once considered completely safe, but which became one of the greatest medical tragedies in modern history.

In the 1950s and early 1960s, thalidomide was widely prescribed for insomnia, nausea, and morning sickness during pregnancy. Marketed as harmless and non-addictive, it was sold in dozens of countries around the world. What followed was a global catastrophe that changed medicine forever.

Told in a quiet, relaxing tone, this sleep documentary explores how thalidomide entered the pharmaceutical market, why its dangers went unnoticed for years, and how its devastating effects on unborn children exposed critical flaws in drug testing and approval systems. The tragedy ultimately led to major reforms in medical regulation and drug safety standards worldwide.

This video is designed for relaxation, background listening, and sleep — with calm narration, gentle pacing, and soft music — while presenting accurate historical facts about one of the most important turning points in medical history.
