Take a look at this article I just read from the Economic
Times. It tells us that in the past four
years big pharma companies have paid out
a whopping $13 billion in fines for a variety
of offenses including marketing drugs for uses they are not approved for,
offering doctor kickbacks (bribes) for prescribing the drug, fraud and
others. Read this article and tell me
these companies are really interested in preserving your health.
