MajorRealityCheck

WhenthepainrelieverVioxxwaswithdrawnfromthemarketlastfallaftertheannouncementthatitincreasedpatients'riskofheartattacksandstrokes,millionsofAmericanspanicked.Thesometimessensationalizedheadlinesdidn'thelp.Peoplewondered,"ShouldItrustmydoctor?""CouldamedicationthatIthoughtwouldhelpmeactuallykillme?""Isourdrugsafetysystembroken?"

Suddenly,adsforthedrugwerereplacedwithadslookingforVioxx"victims".Lawfirmsacrossthenationbeganrecruitinganyonewhohadevertakenthedrugasplaintiffs(原告)forclass-action(公訴)suits.Merck,thecompanythatdevelopedthedrug,couldbeliableforbillionsofdollars,makingitoneofthecostliestliabilitycasesever.Nosurprise,then,thatMerck'sstockplummeted(垂直落下)40percentinjustsixweeks.

Buttherealcostwasevengreater.NotonlydidpatientsstoptakingVioxxbut,doctorssay,manypeoplestoppedtakingtheirothermedicines,too-sometimesputtingtheirhealthatseriousrisk.

Vioxxwasthefirstpebbleinthepharmaceuticalrockslide.Soon,accusationsaboutaspateofotherdrugsweremakingheadlines,includingallCOX-2inhibitorswhich,likeVioxx,relievepain.Thechargesdidn'tstopthere.TheFDAwasaccusedofsimplyrubber-stampingnewdrugs;drugcompanieswereblamedforhidinginformationaboutunsafeproducts;andtheefficacy(功效)ofclinicaltrialsthatdidnotrevealhowlargenumbersofpeoplewouldreactwasquestioned.Butonequestionthatwasrarelyaskedcoulddeterminewhetherornotpharmaceuticalcompaniescontinuetodevelopandproducebreakthroughmedicationsthatcansaveorextendlivesandhelppeoplelivewithoutpain.Thequestion:doAmericansexpectdrugstoberisk-free?And,ifsomeonesuffersabadreaction,willlawyersratherthandoctorsbethefirstpeoplewecall?

PanicoverPills:Overreaction?

Duringthetan-yearperiodbetween1994and2004,theFDAapproved321completelynewdrugs(thisdoesn'tincludeapprovalsforchangestoexistingmedicines),bringingthetotaltomorethan10,000drugproductsonthemarket.Duringthatsameperiod,eightdrugswerewithdrawnforreasonsofsafety,suchasthedietdrugfenfluramine(fen-phen,associatedwithheart-valvedisease)andtheallergydrugSeldane(linkedtoheartarrhythmias).ButtheVioxxrecallcreatedashockwavefortheAmericanconsumerlikenoother.Manypeoplehadcometodependontheir"meals",andtheyexpectedthemtobesafe,too,especiallywhentheycostsomuch.Prescriptiondrugsaccountfor,somesay,thefastestgrowingsegment(aboutone-tenth)ofallhealthexpenditures,withsomespecialtydrugscostinghundredsofdollarsperdose.

"WithVioxx,therealshockandoutragecamewhentherewasasuggestionthatpeopleinauthoritymayhaveknownabouttheseharmfulsideeffectsandnotsharedthemwithdoctorsorthepublic,"saysAnneWoodbury,chiefhealthadvocatefortheCenterforHealthTransformation,athinktankfoundedbyNewtGingrich.Itmadepeoplequestiontheirfaithinthepharmaceuticalindustry,federalregulatorsandphysicians-thosewetrusttomakesureourdrugsaresafe.Before,takinganewlyprescribedpillwithaslugofwaterwasasroutineasbrushingyourteeth.Formanypeople,thisisnolongerthecase.
