Burzynski: obviously we knew that the FDA inspectors will always find something wrong

“Of course, in order to be, eh, in, eh, in order to do what I was doing, it was necessary for me to have inspection, by the inspectors, approved by the FDA, who check our manufacturing facility, and, ah, certify that what ever we do, we do right, and there are no discrepancies”

“So this was obviously something, very difficult, because obviously we knew that the FDA inspectors will always find something wrong, you know”

——————————————————————
(2001 – 2007)
——————————————————————

complaint alleges J&J and Janssen were aware drug posed serious health risks, but companies downplayed these risks
——————————————————————
For example, when J&J study of drug showed significant risk of strokes and other adverse events in patients, complaint alleges Janssen combined study data with other studies to make it appear there was lower overall risk of adverse events
——————————————————————
year after J&J received results of 2nd study confirming increased safety risk for patients taking drug, but hadn’t published data, one physician who worked on study cautioned Janssen
——————————————————————
“[a]t this point, so long after [the study] has been completedwe must be concerned that this gives the strong appearance that Janssen is purposely withholding the findings.”
——————————————————————
complaint alleges Janssen knew patients taking drug had increased risk, but nonetheless promoted drug as “uncompromised by safety concerns
——————————————————————
When Janssen received initial results of studies indicating drug posed same risk as other antipsychotics, complaint alleges company retained outside consultants to re-analyze study results and ultimately published articles stating drug was actually associated with lower risk
——————————————————————
J&J and another of its subsidiaries, Scios Inc.
——————————————————————

I do NOT find your name anywhere, associated with testifying for the U.S. Gubment in Burzynski’s 1997 criminal case

Is that because you’re no Edward Snowden, and so you put your “money-making concern” before your concern for your country ?
