Pfizer paid for my meds when I couldn't ... so yeah, why not? I'm not really defending them, because regardless of what happened, the government let it happen while not allowing people enough choice and personal responsibility to avoid it.
Best to just let people OD on inappropriate meds, eh?
Why aren't said people actually researching their meds before they do so?
These people were allegedly increasing the allowed dosages, and people are depending on their physicians,
and these companies to keep them safe from internal bleeding, liver failure, etc... What they have done is quite frightening actually.
My understanding is that the FDA authorized them under a specific maximum dosage.
And Pfizer increased the dosages without the FDA's permission.
So ... then the FDA wasn't doing it's job "regulating"?
The FDA did regulate, and Pfizer and a few physicians did what they wanted to do.

What so now patients have to have chemistry labs?

Yo mean the government can fuck us over and all we can do is vote against them every two or 4 years ?

Wow ... so you can't look up information online?
Someone can research their meds, but
if the pharm company is publishing
higher-than-recommeded doses,
you're still getting bad information, yes?

Well, you can try to sue ...

The information was intentionally wrong. What part of this conversation are you not getting????????

A smart patient takes the minimum and slowly increases it over time until they see a benefit or the side effects become dangerous. My own doc recommended that for all meds. It's not rocket science, though they may want you to think it is.
Kopchinski and five other whistleblowers will earn more than $102 million in payments from the U.S. government under the False Claims Act through which individuals can reap rewards for exposing corporate wrongdoing.
How much do we get for exposing government wrongdoing ?
Whistleblower Collects $48M For Reporting Fraud Against Government
A whistleblower will collect $48 million for exposing fraud against the government by TRW, Inc. The $325 million settlement, and the whistleblowers share, is allegedly the largest of its type regarding military procurement.
Qui Tam lawsuit pays off big
This whistleblower, or Qui Tam, lawsuit paid off big for Robert Ferro. According to news reports, Ferro worked for TRW (not the credit reporting company) in the aerospace industry in the 1990s. He discovered problems with satellites that were being sold to the U.S. government and wrote a report about it. However, TRW now owned by the Northrop Grumman Corporation pressured him not to publish the report. A few years later, satellites sold to the government started failing and falling out of orbit. The company fixed the satellites, but charged the government a lot of money to do so. The fixes also delayed various launch delays over the course of several years.
Although TRW continually told the government that it had no prior knowledge that the satellites would fail, Ferro filed a Qui Tam lawsuit against the company alleging that TRW did know and that the company was taking the government for a ride. The case recently settled for $325 million a record for a military procurement case. Ferro received 15% of that amount a hefty $48.75 million.

Yes, and we trust that our physician is giving us
a correct minimum dosage. Not everyone
owns a computer (elderly, to whom much
of the bextra was prescribed to). Not everyone
owns a Merck Manual. Not everyone in
this country is literate.
To me, that's like saying, "it's okay that I've
shot you with a 9mm, because you
know nothing about guns".
