    I have been to medical studies in the past..Biokenetics, and I know for a fact they fudge results to favor the drugs they are testing. So I feel these major drug companies that are out there are NOT in it to help others, just in it to make a profit and make ppl addicted to there products, or suffer from side effects to take another product ( more money for them) so ppl put more money into there pockets. Its immoral. In a hundred years there probably wont be enough of us left to buy meds and support the industry. Think about it...EVERYTHING we take has some possiblity of an ever worse side effect. Take something for the runs, you could end up with some syndrome youve never had before. Point?...Human misery and suffering is a business that pays for drug companies and they will say and do what ever it takes, even lie and bribe, at the expense of our lives to make that profit.

    Vytorin does not have any data proving life saving benefits , like other statins. Schering would like everyone to make that assumption in order for them to continue to profit. This is a 25 BILLION dollar market. Why else would they withold data from a negative trial (2006) which would clearly lower sales?
