Makers of Botox Guilty of Fraud
Dr. Petryk’s Thoughts: Allergan Inc., the maker of Botox, was found guilt of fraud by marketing Botox’s “off label” use. Off label is a term used to describe when a medication is prescribed for something other than it’s intended use. For example, Lyrica was originally “labeled” for depression however, it was found to have an affect on patients suffering from Fibromyalgia and many physicians began to prescribe it for it’s “off label” use in Fibromyalgia.
BUYER BEWARE!!! There is a reason that the FDA approval process is the way it is and renegade’s have no place. Medications are dangerous enough when prescribed properly and for their intended use
