Drugs
are meant to enhance health and bring relief from ailments,
but sometimes, a drug that is intended to help instead
causes injury. This may occur when a drug is not properly
tested, when it is prescribed to the wrong patients,
or when it causes a previously
unsuspected side effect.
Drug
manufacturers, pharmacists, and doctors have a responsibility
to ensure that the drugs they prescribe or provide for
patients do not cause harm. Some drugs have dangerous
side effects or have the potential to cause long-term
damage. These drugs are often the subjects of later
recalls. While the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
plays a regulatory role in determining drug safety,
the manufacturer is ultimately liable for any injuries.
