Another Novartis drug showing signs of severe side effects. Good luck with the new CV drug I hope Novartis does not flush this one down the toilet like so many others. It just seems that every drug ends up with some kind of problem, even Diovan now faces lawsuits in Japan for fixing the data. Here is a company that had such a strong pipeline but never could get them through the FDA why? Will they learn from past mistakes ?
Galvus , spent millions on pre promotions priming the pump for DPP4, Merck laughs all the way to the bank with Januvia. The brains didn't want to go for BID & monkey testicle rashes Zelnorm , promoted off label as a prep, reps promoted into management until strokes & heart attacks kill off a few patients=drug RIP while Linzess is doing fine in the IBS market Valturna -& rat data , pulled Lucentis -price fixing in Europe Diovan - bogus studies & data Gleevec / Tasigna - 10K side effects shredded , 4k of them severe Lescol - crappiest statin Fanapt - ?? lol !! Reclast/Zometa - osteonecrosis of the jaw Lamisil - Black Box Gilenya- first dose monitoring You can go on forever.....
