Asthma Drug Linked to Serious Adverse Events

Still think they know what a "safe" drug is?
"For chronic asthma, the regular use of formoterol is associated with a significant increase in non-fatal serious adverse events, according to a systematic review of the literature.

In an analysis of 22 randomized trials, regular formoterol use was linked to a 57% increase in non-fatal serious adverse events compared with placebo (OR 1.57, 95% CI 1.05 to 2.37), Christopher Cates, B.M.B.Ch., of St. George's University of London, and colleagues reported in a Cochrane Review."
Remember, ill-affects from drugs may not be "discovered" for many years after their release.

Diet drugs, a form of malpractice, are no different.

Except they are completely unnecessary and cannot "cure" the problem for which they are sold.

The only thing that will "cure" overweight/obesity/overfatness is fewer Calories in than out.

If you are offered drugs or surgery, talk to a plaintiff's attorney first, IMHO.
