      Connecticut Wants To Ban Pharma Gifts

Blumenthal wants to make it illegal for drugmakers to give gifts or other benefits to physicians, citing it may influence their health care decisions despite a code of ethics the industry has already adopted. In his view, the current code is meaningless and unenforceable. Drug companies spend more than $11 billion per year on relentless direct marketing of their drugs. Specifically, Blumenthal proposes that Connecticut law: Prohibit any gifts, scholarships or other items in exchange for prescribing products, a commitment to continue prescribing products or to otherwise interfere with the independence of a health care provider’s

In many cases, Merck's involvement in producing the data wasn't disclosed, according to two articles in the current Journal of the American Medical Association relying on court papers. The documents disclosed by Merck in two Vioxx lawsuits also suggest the company's control of the data allowed it to downplay the risk of death from Vioxx in patients with Alzheimer's disease, the journal's editors said in an editorial.

Being in the military is just so appealing. glumbert - What if the Military had disclaimers like Pharma Ads?

      Digital Pharma Marketers Keep It Simple
      The endless text of pharma disclaimers is at home on the Web. Web sites are getting pharmaceutical marketers' interactive budgets this year, according to a new study by the Medical Broadcasting Company (MBC) and CBI Research.A plurality of pharma marketers said site spending would be most likely to get their budgets this year.

      To: Big Pharma, From: Med Students
      (Posted by Patrick Sullivan Jr.) Encouraging news for the future of conventional medicine over at PharmaGossip:Vision: AMSA [The American Medical Students Association] envisions a day when pharmaceutical companies are able to dedicate their resources to creating drugs that physicians choose to use because they are effective in treating disease, not because they are effectively marketed. We envision a day when every medical student and physician is aware of the professional, ethical and practical complications of the current relationship with pharmaceutical company representatives. We envision a day when physicians demand integrity, honesty, and education (not biased information) from members of their profession, for the sake of our patients and their trust in us. Mission: Our mission in 2006 is to encourage medical schools and academic medical centers to develop policies that limit the access of pharmaceutical company representatives to their campuses and prohibits medical students a
