The pharmaceutical lab Merck withdrew its painkiller Vioxx because it was found that patients were three times as likely to suffer heart attacks and strokes and on April 7, 2005. Pfizer was forced to recall Bextra and add a strong warning label to Celebrex due to their risk of heart attack and stroke.

We were led to believe by pharmaceutical companies and even the government that consuming these medications were a safe and an alternative solution to aspirin for pain without the side effects such as stomach discomfort or bleeding. Celebrex was the world's best-selling arthritis drug making billions of dollars for Pfizer lab. Now all these labs have thousands of lawsuits from victims who's lives were either destroyed or killed in the name of profits for pharmaceutical companies.

       
The pharmaceutical drug company Merck in addition to the Food and Drug Administration, and the Center For Disease Control fully knew the damage that Thimerosal which is a preservative containing mercury used in childhood vaccines caused autism, ADD/ADHD, stuttering, and speech and language delays.  Thimerosal was used to boost profits for the pharmaceutical companies, by allowing the use of multi-dose bottles of vaccines instead of individually packaged doses.  Instead of banning the product immediately, the FDA kept the Center For Disease Control findings secret, and allowed millions of more children to be vaccinated with the poisonous vaccines.

 
According to the medical peer-review journals, and government health statistics American medicine frequently causes more harm than good. The number of people having in-hospital, adverse drug reactions (ADR) to prescribed medicine is 2.2 million. The unnecessary antibiotics prescribed annually for viral infections was 20 million. The number of unnecessary medical and surgical procedures performed annually is 7.5 million. The number of people exposed to unnecessary hospitalization annually is 8.9 million. It is evident that the American medical system is the leading cause of death and injury in the United States.
