[quote:Da Swede:MV85OTI4MTdfMTU2MDk5OTFfQzgwQzk1RA==] One very good drug that I´d take all the time if I could, is Hydergine (Sandoz). The most underrated drug of all time. [/quote]

It's being called
the largest research fraud in medical history.

Dr. Scott Reuben, a former member of Pfizer's speakers' bureau, has plead guilty to faking dozens of research studies that were published in medical journals.
His research study, which was published in a medical journal, has since been quoted by hundreds of other doctors and researchers as "proof" that Celebrex is a safe and effective drug.
There's only one problem with all this: No patients were ever enrolled in the study!
And it wasn't the first study faked by Dr. Reuben: He also faked study data on Bextra and Vioxx drugs, reports the Wall Street Journal.
The Day of London reports that 21 articles written by Dr. Reuben that appear in medical journals have apparently been fabricated, too, and must be retracted. And an internal audit there found that Dr. Reuben had been faking research data for 13 years.
What's notable about this story is not the fact that a medical researcher faked clinical trials for the pharmaceutical industry. The real story here is that this is business as usual in the pharmaceutical industry.
Drug companies bribe researchers and doctors as a routine matter. Medical journals routinely publish false, fraudulent studies. FDA panel members regularly rely on falsified research in making their drug approval decisions, and the mainstream media regularly quotes falsified research in reporting the news.
