I'm a bit confused. How do the Lilly investigators know that they have a 'healhy volunteer' WITHOUT doing a psychiatric evaluation? I'm willing to accept the possibility that they didn't do one, but if that's the case, that's rather disturbing IMO.
If they don't do one as a matter of course, perhaps they should when testing psych meds? That would seem to be a wise course.
