What a surprise! Illegal? How could that be? Aren't the drug companies ONLY interested in making us well?????
Drug Company to Pay Half a Billion Dollar Fine for ILLEGAL Marketing
Amazingly this is the fourth drug company in three years to be found guilty of illegally marketing a hazardous drug.
Drugmaker AstraZeneca has agreed to pay $520 million to settle federal investigations into marketing practices for its schizophrenia drug Seroquel. This makes AstraZeneca the fourth big drug company in the last three years to admit to federal charges of illegal marketing of antipsychotic drugs.
The company was accused of misleading doctors and patients by spotlighting favorable research while failing to adequately disclose studies showing that Seroquel increases the risk of diabetes.
The New York Times reports that:
"AstraZeneca still faces more than 25,000 civil lawsuits filed on behalf of patients contending that the company did not disclose the drug's risks. "
