Don’t Be Taken In
Just because the media annouce a new drug, don’t assume you should rush out to your doctor and ask for it. A careful patient should only ask about a new drug if the present one, or a less expensivce one, is not doinig the job. Most new drigs do nothing except expand income for drug companies. Very few new drugs make any significant difference to the outcome of most chronic diseases. This is the case with Vytorin and Zetia.
