Pharmaceutical Liability

Finally, a drug that can give you relief from your ailment! But wait a minute, how long has it been on the market? Has a studied been conducted? Has ALL data from that study been reported? Pharmaceutical companies are rushing drugs to the market to make a profit. This is all the while people with debilitating illnesses are hopeful to find relief in pharmaceuticals. Will the relief from the drug outweigh the bad side effects; or rather the unknown; or known by the drug company, but not telling?

An article in the New York Times talks specifically about how GlaxoSmithKline puts profit above public safety. The British pharmaceutical company failed to report all data on a drug used treat diabetes, Avandia.
