$8 billion seems excessive.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77824933 That's about 10% of their total asset holdings...I'd award him $50 and tell him to prove he wouldn't have developed titties without the drug...
This young man was 11 yes old when he was prescribed an anti psychotic, a dangerous drug in my opinion for an autism spectrum disorder!!!!!!
When did the fda approve it to be used in this way? Was it based on doctored reports suggesting it was suitable for CHILDREN with autism?
Big Pharma lie and cheat to make mega bucks of the backs of ill people..
Big Pharma should be held responsible for the products they make and if products have serious side-effects the should be monitored to ensure they are doing everything possible to eradicate said effects. THEY SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE.
The only way to hold them accountable is to take them to court, no-one with teeth to actually bring about change seems to be doing their job.
Healthcare is way overpriced, That's due to greedy PHARMA and inactive government. 8 billion dollars does seem excessive, and you know it will be reduced, however, perhaps this judgement will make these parasites sit up, pay attention and and fix their poisonous products.
Government should cap big Pharma and insurance companies. If they insure companies with high risk products then the companies should shoulder the financial costs...not the I'll person being victimised twice....Overpaying for medication, suffering devastating side-effects and being gouged by greedy insurance companies.
I am amazed people are supportive of a company selling this product that harmed a CHILD!!!!
