Top Court Rules In Favor Of Drug Companies In Two Cases
The Supreme Court, in a 5-4 decision, has ruled that makers of generic drugs do not have to warn consumers of the dangers of the medicine if the brand name drug makers don't. In a separate case, the justices, in a 6-3 ruling, again sided with drug companies and overturned a Vermont law that barred them from using information gathered from prescriptions to market drugs to doctors.
