When someone goes into surgery, they put their trust and life in the hands of medical professionals. These medical professionals are trained to know the ins and outs of the medicine. However, what happens when critical information is into provided to them. Whose fault does it become, the doctor’s due to ignorance or the manufacturers shoddy products?If the manufacturers marketed the product for regular use with no contingencies based on lies, then it is obviously the fault of the manufacturers. Also, if the manufacturer held information that led to startling findings about the drug but did not publish them, it is obviously the manufacturers fault as well. If however, a manufacturer told the doctor about all of the risks and threats to the health of the patient, yet the doctor prescribed the drug anyways because it would gain a large profit, it is at the fault of the doctor. If however, the manufacturer told the doctor about the side effects and bribed the doctor with incentives, it would the fault of both the doctor and the manufacturer. Trasylol was recalled in November of 2007, two years after Bayer first found out about the devastating effects Trasylol causes. In an meeting with the FDA, Bayer Pharmaceuticals willingly witheld information that would have prompted the FDA to recall Trasylol immediately. Over 20,00 lives could have been saved from the time Bayer knew about the negative sides effects from Trasylol, to the day the FDA finally recalled the drug. At this point in time Bayer knew that Trasylol was causing serious kidney failure and deaths, however it was still on the market. The fact that Bayer did nothing about that completely questions their entire companies motives as a whole. In the case of Trasylol, no one but Bayer pharmaceuticals knew about the devastating side effects except them. They chose not to disclose the information about the negative side effects Trasylol has on its patients. Bayer knew that it increases the risk of kidney failure by more than 50%. This is a decision that Bayer made, and made alone. Now they must pay for the consequences and make right what they have done so wrong. Most people who were given Trasylol during surgery had no idea because typically someone isn’t too interested in the drugs used during surgery unless the patient is allergic. Therefore even after the recall came out, thousands were still suffering and didn’t know why.
