hmmm...since the FDA usually functions more as an industry-friendly group these days, if they're recommending a black box warning...that's a big deal. It makes me wonder about the quality of the data the company presented to them. Also...what's with the study where "patients were encouraged to eat as much aged cheese as possible" ? That kind of strikes me as a irresponsible and dangerous. Anyway, I'm just considerably less excited about this drug now than I was before..it seems more like a modest improvement on an old drug than some sort of innovative breakthrough. **sigh** with all the money drug companies make, you'd think they could do better.
