Renee,
The information wasn't available to any of us as we've said many time. While it is currenlty available to some degree, many of the side effects are still not mentioned, more likely some of the most serious and obvious and common, like the neurological damage. I cannot tell you how many people have written to me having lost their jobs because their fatigue was so bad that they couldn't stay awake. I am willing to bet that Wyeth has to this day significantly under-reported all figures regarding the side effects, as I believe they still record withdrawal problems at something like 2 percent...and anyone here is likely to disagree with that number.
I don't think that their business practices as Wyeth is any more ethical now than it was as American Home Products when they were manufacturing Phen-Phen and trying to pass that off as safe.
