The New England Journal of Medicine has filed an amicus brief in the United States Supreme Court arguing that lawsuits against drug companies benefit the medical practice by getting information about harmful effects of drugs into the hands of both doctors and the public.
The case is Wyeth v. Levine. You can read the news story at http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080815/ap_on_go_su_co/fda_drug_safety_lawsuit_1
Maybe next they will see that suing doctors who commit malpractice actually improves the profession by weeding out the incompetent doctors.
