Unsafe Drugs

 

Prescription and over-the-counter drugs sold in the United States go through medical trials and approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). However, with billions of prescriptions filled each year, many drugs cause dangerous side effects and even death. Serious health ailments may occur when drugs are not tested strenuously enough, and unexpected, or more frequent, side effects become evident once the drug is on the market. Problems also arise when patients mix certain medications. The FDA has warned consumers not to buy drugs online, because such vendors may not be licensed and drugs may not be properly dosed or labeled.

The Federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Considering Major Changes

The Federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has come under scrutiny in the press due to the large number of public advisories and health warnings the agency has released in the last couple of years. Some consumer groups claim that the agency “fast tracks" too many drugs, therefore not permitting sufficient time for potential side effects or long term ill health effects to surface prior to the approval of a new drug. The agency states that it is committed to continuing the evaluation of drugs after their approval and that it is an important part of ensuring public safety. read more

Use of Serevent Can Cause More Serious Asthma Attacks

It is prescribed as asthma medication and for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD), such as emphysema and chronic bronchitis. On November 18, 2005, the FDA alerted health care professionals and patients that several long-acting bronchodilator medicines including Serevent have been associated with an increased risk of wheezing (bronchospasm) in some people. In addition, the FDA requested that the manufacturers of these medications update their existing product labels with new warnings and include an updated medication guide for patients. read more
