Rezulin
Warner-Lambert's diabetes drug Rezulin was withdrawn from the market on March 21, 2000 after reports of death and liver injuries among Rezulin users. Citizen advocate groups had petitioned the US Food and Drug Administration as early as July 1998.
Warner-Lambert announced a label change on November 3, 1997 after receiving at least 35 reports of liver injuries in Rezulin patients. Rezulin was banned in Great Britain on December 1, 1997. By March 1999, the FDA estimated that more than 400 Rezulin patients had suffered liver damage. On March 21, 2000, the FDA requested that Warner-Lambert withdraw Rezulin from the market.
The FDA noted that Rezulin was more toxic than the two alternatives to Rezulin, Avandia and Actos.
The FDA's senior epidemiologist has estimated that 20 Rezulin patients per month are suffering from liver failure. Further, the FDA is now investigating whether Warner-Lambert concealed findings of liver toxicity in the 1994 clinical trials.
