Re: Effect of Rosiglitazone on the Risk of Myocardial Infarction and Death from Cardiovascular Causes

The Lancet has an editorial on its website discussing the
controversy: http://multimedia.thelancet.com/pdf/rosiglitazone_editorial.pdf.
The unsigned editorial suggests that "the FDA, physicians, and
patients can reasonably await the results of RECORD, a phase III trial
designed specifically to study cardiovascular outcomes."

Asked to comment, Journal Watch Cardiology Editor-in-Chief Harlan M.
Krumholz wrote: "Why would you wait when Avandia has never been shown
to avert events or save lives? And now that there is evidence of
potential harm - and there are alternative meds - it seems to me that
the pressure is on the company to show that it is safe and effective."
