For most of us, when we are prescribed drugs by a doctor we assume that the medicine will work to help us, not harm us. However, dangerous drugs, that are often later recalled, do slip through cracks in the system. 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.

Pharmaceutical companies are in the business of making money, and that means often pushing a product onto the market at the expense of thorough, complete drug tests.

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.
