The Industry Veteran has a quick contribution to the Paxil story, gathered from the home town press of GSK.

The London press claims that the British Healthcare Regulatory Agency is too cozy with GSK and that it took an outsider such as Eliot Spitzer to initiate a probe of the company’s Paxil malfeasance. It looks to me as if the Brits are already less inclined than the American press and government to swallow Big Pharma’s propaganda. If they decide to really get off their asses, the industry better set aside billions in litigation reserves.
