Pfizer Inc. (PFE) has stopped all studies of the drug tanezumab for treating chronic low back pain and nerve damage caused by diabetes at the request of the FDA.
Why?
Notice what the news source says:
"The world's largest drug maker said the FDA request came after reports of side effects in osteoarthritis patients taking tanezumab and because the agency was worried about the potential for similar effects in other patients taking the drug.
Pfizer last month had announced the suspension of tanezumab studies in patients with osteoarthritis, or low back pain. At that time, Credit Suisse said experts had suggested the drug's relief was so effective it led to patients overusing their joints, causing them to require joint replacements earlier than otherwise expected."
We applaud the efforts of the FDA in halting the testing of this drug tanezumab, BEFORE too many people are hurt by the side effects.
That's why we love chiropractics. Its safe and natural without the side effects that often come with pain medications.
If you would like to experience the relief of back pain without the side effects of prescription pain killers please contact us for a complimentary phone consultation.
If it makes sense to you I would like to PAY for your initial visit and consultation. You can read about the details of our chiropractic special to see for yourself.
We look forward to helping you!
