Write a 10 page review and analysis paper on why Pharmaceutical company Merck and the marketing of prescription drug VIOXX was unethical
Â
Merck & Marketing of VIOXX
·       Merck is a pharmaceutical company that produced Vioxx (a pain reliever for arthritis)
·       Decided to withdraw Vioxx from the market on 9/30/2004
·       Found the customers who use Vioxx have a higher risk of heart attacks and did not tell consumers
·       Evidence was presented to show that Merck scientists considered potential heart problems w/ Vioxx in early 1997
·       In 2002 decided to add evidence of increased incidence of heart attacks (the language on the label emphasized the uncertainty of the cause)
