Although medications can provide positive health and lifestyle changes, medications carry their own health risks. Healthcare providers, pharmacists and patients need and deserve to be properly informed of these risks. Pharmaceutical products can carry a health risk when pharmaceutical and biological companies:
- fail to properly study their products both pre and post FDA approval
- fail to properly analyze study results
- fail to properly monitor, report and/or analyze adverse events
- fail to properly market products
- fail to properly educate healthcare providers and patients about benefits and risks of these products
Proving such negligence requires experience, creativity and adequate resources. But the end result can change the way the industry practices, and most importantly can save lives.
