In reply to GSK - Paxil lawsuits, posted by garnet71 on June 7, 2009, at 3:41:08
As long as GSK remains solvent and keeps making Lamictal, that's what takes priority on my list of special interests at the moment.
It seems that there is currently an environment in which drug companies are being bashed from all directions, some of which is deserved and in the public interest to see those issues rectified. However, it is not in the public interest to award multi-million or billion dollar punitive judgments against drug companies so that they are encouraged to merge with one another or perhaps charge otherwise unconscionably high prices for their products to defray the costs of these judgments. We should encourage drug companies to operate with minimum overhead and with maximum oversight.
