Hi:
Read the following paragraph:>>> The latest in depression, bipolar, and mental health.
Serzone to be Taken Off US Market (May 19, 2004)
Bristol-Myers Squibb has announced it will take Serzone off the market in the US, effective June 14. Serzone has been linked to a remote risk of liver failure, involving 20 deaths worldwide. The drug has been pulled from Europe and Canada and will be withdrawn from New Zealand and Australia.
"The drug is still available in generic form."
Serzone patients are advised to contact their prescribing physicians immediately. >>>
