[QUOTE="kesun, post: 569836, member: 39776"] It seems to me there's a grey area that shades from "this medicine definitely saves lives, so the side effects are tolerable, and it brings in a profit, so it's worth manufacturing" through "this medicine is likely on balance to help, so the side effects are tolerable" and ends with "this medicine does no known harm and it makes a profit, and the side effects are tolerable, so it's worth manufacturing". None of these is illegal and none puts patient safety at risk, so although only the first could really be called "health comes first", it's hard for an outsider to know which one is the motivator for which medicine.
