- From the page: "As a cascade of recent examples demonstrates, FDA approval does not and cannot warrant a drug's safety over its lifetime. Vioxx, Celebrex, Halcion, Paxil, the weight loss pill ephedra -- the list goes on. In each of these cases, private litigation exposed risks the FDA did not foresee -- and, importantly, likely could not have foreseen -- at the time the drug was approved. Each of these cases also exposed ample evidence that the drug manufacturers did have knowledge of these risks, and did not disclose them. "
We should demand that these companies prove that their products are safe. To release them while keeping the effects secret is unacceptable to say the least.
