Big Pharma responds to ‘Bad Pharma’ attack

The Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry has hit back at criticisms of the industry in a book by the medical doctor and campaigner Ben Goldacre.

The ABPI said the issues presented in the book, ‘Bad Pharma’, are important but added, “We must remember though that the examples he refers to are long documented and historical, and the companies concerned have long addressed these issues.”
