Vioxx
There are more than 6,500 lawsuits filed against Merck & Co., maker of the popular arthritis drug Vioxx, and each one of those lawsuits accuses the drug maker of failing to inform public health authorities of the heart risks and other serious side effects that can occur in patients on Vioxx. More than 1 million Americans were taking Vioxx when Merck & Co. withdrew it from the market on September 30, 2004. It has been cited for raising the risk of cardiovascular disease, which is the leading cause of death in the United States. However, proof of that did not come until five years after the drug was licensed and three years after the first hints of a problem.
