Da da dum dum dump. “Another one bites the dust…”
The rock band Queen may have been predicting the future of prescription drugs. As Big Phama tries to create the latest and greatest magic bullet, one thing stands true. They keep falling on their faces. The latest to fall is Vytorin or one of its components, Zetia.
The AP headline reads “Doctors wary after cholesterol drug flop.” I would be wary too. Zetia and Vytorin have sold over $5,000,000,000 worth of product with no benefit. Five billion dollars spent on nothing. At least the government gets a box of over-priced toilet lids or hammers for five billion! We can use that stuff and a properly functioning hammer can be used for thousands of nails.
With the Congressional hearings on Big Pharma and their “delay” in releasing the findings in a responsible time frame, they waited over two years, something will eventually have to happen.
It’s not a bad idea to know if a drug works before released or what the real side-effects are. My hope is that the government uses one of its high dollar hammers to put a nail in the coffin of unnecessary and absurd drug fast-tracking through the FDA and bring this nonsense to an end.

The revolving door of key players between FDA and the PHARMAs will most likely ensure that CODEX "protection" restrictions will probably be in place long before FDA takes any meaningful across-the-board oversight effort with BIG PHARMA. A few high-profile sacrafices should appease the majority of sheeple.
