Those two Demorats can tell multinational corporations what to do but can’t control their own lives .... what a lot of **
Isn’t this the statin that we discussed on another thread that had such bad side effects?

I’m betting that Pfizer either (a) didn’t donate to Dingell or (b) didn’t donate enough in Dingell’s opinion.
Hence the punishment.
Lipitor is #1 cholestral drug but is a statin...not for long term use if possible, but rather a few years and then get off it ....IMHO
“Lipitor can lower the deadly artery-clogging substance by as much as 60% and, when combined with regular exercise and a low-fat diet, prevents heart attacks and sudden deaths.”
I’m sure Pfizer had nothing to do with writing this article; no, nothing at all.
You mean politicians like oh, say...John McCain?
You just gotta weigh the benefits vs. the risks, and remember that no one cares as much about you as you do. When the day comes that a doctor tells me I have high cholesterol, I will do whatever I have to via diet and exercise to fix it. If someone has done everything right and their numbers are still bad, then it may make sense to take a low dose and see if it helps, although who knows anymore, since now it is being said that cholesterol might not have anything to do with it. I hand out Lipitor all day long to people who obviously don’t want to take personal responsibility for their own health. The drug company developed a drug that demonstrates a specific, measurable effect, so good for them if they make money.
The democrats and their trial lawyer vermin have destroyed the US pharmaceutical industry, once the world leader, by far. New medications have disappeared from the development pipeline.
The time is coming.
People are helped by their product, eh? And they’re making a profit, huh? Shut them down, I say!
