Dnp ( Dnp ) For Public Consumption

The “Cold Feet” dilemma had seven people that would be affected by my decision: The shareholders, the Chief Legal Officer, the Marketing Director, the Division Medical Director, the National Institute of Health, the future purchasers of the drug, and the Journal. The reputation lens and the relationship lens were used to help me make a decision. The relationship lens helped me identify that people involved are entitled to a number of limited rights, people without power must be protected, and the right to a fair process. This led me to choose to have a committee with the appropriate authority and representation

In the first of two court cases between 1950 and 1962, the courts ordered Mytinger & Casselberry, Inc. to change their claims of Nutrilite vitamins positively aeffecting diseases like cancer, arthritis, asthma, heart trouble and tuberculosis. They changed their sales booklet, but most of the claims in the booklet was were still very misleading. After the FDA went on a rampage to seize as many of Nutrilite’s products as possible to force them to correct their misleading info or face going to court, Mytinger & Casselberry filed suit against the FDA, stating through the seizures they are trying to run them out of business, before they could make the necessary corrections, i. In a fairly lucky twist theirir the Judge in their case Judge Goldsborough, who was very much against the FDA, found in favor of Mytinger & Casselberry and issued a restraining order against the FDA, they went to trial and on

In order to have better understanding, data from the manufacturers is reviewed below which will also show whether the manufacturers of these products behaved ethically as well as what needs to be reconsider with respect to the use of incretin-based therapies because of the growing concern of potential risk of AP. Hence risk management plans will be discussed below. (Butler et al, 2013)

The pharmaceutical industry along with the manufacturers of healthcare products and technologies often encourage the misappropriation and distribution of marginally beneficial products and technologies in the healthcare industry. These companies often use various advertising methods to influence members of the public to request their products and services without adequate knowledge of their effectiveness and implications to their medical condition.

They deceived them for 40 years by making them think they were receiving treatments for “bad blood” when in fact they were withholding treatment. However, in present day, researchers must comply with guidelines and undergo a review panel to be approved. Participants must be informed of the study and its risks as well as the right to decline participation at any given time. The subjects must also be competent and be able to understand what is happening in the experiment as well as its

There were of course marketing and advertising campaigns launched by the drug companies producing this product that touted these narcotics as the cure for all types of physical and mental ailments ranging from alcohol withdrawal to cancer, depression, sluggishness, coughs, colds, tuberculosis and even old age. Most of the elixirs pitched by the old “snake oil salesmen” in their medicine shows contained one or more of these narcotics in their mix.

According to Ghillyer (2014), medications and drugs have many uses that are often not approved by the Federal Drug Administration. In 2012 Abbott Laboratories were involved in a lawsuit related to illegal marketing. The company promoted a medication to control and treat agitation, aggression, and schizophrenia. The medication had only been approved for treatment of seizures, migraines, and bipolar mania. GlaxoKline-Smith was also involved in a settlement regarding off-label promotions for marketing Wellbutrin for weight loss, sexual dysfunction, substance addiction, and behavioral

One of the many advancements made during the duration of World War I was that of poisonous gasses. These gasses were considered “uncivilized” before the beginning of the first World War. However, they were deemed necessary to overcome the standoff between the Allied forces and the Central Powers. The French army was the first to use such a weapon in 1914, but the Germans were the first to use poisonous gasses on a large scale. The German’s first recorded use of

One of the interesting things I have learned from Ben Goldacre’s Bad Science is how significant it is to know the difference between science and pseudoscience. As Goldacre discusses, most people see science as an authority not a method (Goldacre, page 3); so they mistakenly confuse market-based pseudoscientific products with science. Science is about experimental methods and testing specific hypothesis by controlling conditions to see the effects of studied factors. Pseudoscience, in contrast, ignores experimental methods, takes advantage of the science name, and justify its findings by shifting into untestable positions (Goldacre, page 7). The emergence of detox products (Goldacre, page 4), brain gym (Goldacre, page 15), homeopathy (Goldacre, page 30) and other types of alternative therapies are good examples. One key point here is the importance of experimental methods. One way to find out the basic of science, we need to disprove pseudoscientific claims (Goldacre, page 3) and it is done thorough experimental methods.

Scientists at Ravensbruck “tested the efficacy of sulfanilamide and the regeneration of bones in the human body” (University of Toronto). Sulfanilamide is still used today to restrict the growth of certain bacteria. During WWII, the Nazis were afraid that the Allies would “attack with phosgene gas, so Doctor Birkenbach was ordered to find a means of protection against such poisoning” (Gomes 2). Phosgene is used today as a chemical in the production of pesticides, but the Chief Administrator of the EPA chose to forgo the use of the Nazi data because of the harshness of the execution of the experiments. It is undeniable that the implementation of the Nazi-derived data would boost the United States’ knowledge of the effect of phosgene on humans.

In the case United States v. Warshak, Steve Warshak, Owner of Berkeley Premium Nutraceuticals, Inc was subject to a federal investigation in March of 2005. In the year of 2001, Berkeley launched a successful flagship product advertised as a natural male enhancement pill called Enzyte, that profited two hundred and fifty million in annual sales ($250) (Craig, 2013). The company’s flagship product Enzyte had an auto-ship program which created negative customer reviews, order cancellations, and a bad reputation. As a result of the negative auto-ship program, customers created numerous complaints against the company. In September 2006, after conducting an investigation, Southern District of Ohio returned a 112-count indictment charging Warshak with conspiracy to commit mail, wire and bank fraud, and additional federal crimes (Craig, 2013).

He illustrates all the wrong doings of the pharmaceutical companies from their unethical ‘standard company sales pitch’ to their ‘deadly drug.’ He also shed light on all those who were on the brink of discovery on the drugs deadly secrete. Dr Leslie Florence published a paper linking thalidomide to nerve damage in 1960 followed by an interview some 51 years later. After inserts of evidence in the past tense he refers back to the trial in the present tense continuing the narrative. The structure of his writing follows a narrative rather than a diary or catalogue.

Joseph Knoll, professor and head of the Pharmacological Department of the Semmelweis University in Budapest (Hungary), developed (-)Deprenyl in the 1960s.

In February of 2015 the Federal Trade Commission issued refunds to 11,585 consumers for diet pills that were labeled as “fat burning” and “calorie blocking.” A Quebec based marketing group ran by Manon Fernet falsely claimed that the “Double Shot” pill would cause rapid, substantial and permanent weight loss, without diet or exercise; the FTC refund totaled to $464,000. According to the case after further investigation the Commission vote authorizing the staff to file the complaint and approving the proposed settlement order was
