The big pharma group Pfizer is constantly struggling with huge scandals and massive quality problems. Maximizing profits rather than serving human health seems to be the order of the day, looking at the long list. Now a high blood pressure drug had to be recalled: the drug posed an increased risk of cancer for patients due to impurities.
Pfizer is best known in this country for its Viagra potency pill and the experimental Covid vaccine. But other drugs are also manufactured and sold by the group. This includes a drug for high blood pressure called “Accuzide”. The Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices (BfArM) recently announced that the pharmaceutical company is recalling all strengths and pack sizes of this drug. The reason for this: nitrosamine impurities. Nitrosamines are considered potentially carcinogenic. In this Red Hand letter the recall is justified.
Problems with Covid vaccinations are also downplayed and covered up
Although the company reacted early this time, this is not always the case. Because when it comes to the experimental Covid vaccines, there were already such big problems with the clinical studies that the renowned British Medical Journal (BMJ) the alarm bells were ringing. And not only that: Pfizer was well aware that the experimental mRNA vaccine against Covid-19 suppresses the human immune system and the nanolipids accumulate in the female ovaries. This sloppiness in the approval studies could even lead to the company having to deal with massive legal problems. So it’s no wonder that Pfizer and the US FDA have tried everything possible to keep all the data secret for decades. If you would like comprehensive information, simply use the search function on our site (keyword “Pfizer”) and you will be shocked at the horror reports that have been found in just the last few months.
Pfizer studies should often be treated with extreme caution
Above all, comprehensive research makes it clear that all Pfizer studies should be treated with caution. For example, the company in 1996 in Nigeria drug studies in children conducted to test the experimental antibiotic Trovan. The company tested the experimental drug on two hundred children. The children’s parents assumed the children would receive the standard meningitis vaccine, but Pfizer employees created two control groups instead. Half of the children received the experimental Trovan, while the other hundred children received a reduced dose of the leading meningitis equivalent. The lower dose should help artificially skew the results in Trovan’s favor for marketing and competitive reasons. But that study resulted in the deaths of 11 children, while others became paralyzed, deaf, or blindso that the injured parties and their families in the US before the court complained.
Illegal premarketing
The following year, Pfizer was hit by more major scandals. One of them concerned the illegal pre-marketing of HIV drug maraviroc, which initially delayed FDA approval of the drug. In 2009, Pfizer became a payment of $2.3 billion convicted of out-of-scope sales promotions and bribery payments (second largest pharmaceutical settlement to date, by the way). In 2004 there were a similar case $430 million.
There are scandals after scandals surrounding Pfizer (and other big pharma companies too), so that one can really ask oneself whether the company is actually concerned with human health or perhaps more with profit maximization. After all, the fines and settlement amounts are usually significantly lower than the profits made in the meantime. As a pharmaceutical company, you can actually buy yourself out quite cheaply. And of course it is even better – as in the case of the experimental Covid vaccine – if you can get a license right away so that you cannot be held liable for vaccine damage. And there are more and more of them.
