Semantics indeed! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> Don't know who the "confidential U.S. government" individuals are...but I did misspeak in stating that the FDA recommended pulling the drug. I'll pull one over on you one day yet, Amy! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif" border="0">

"Confidential U.S. government reports recommend that GlaxoSmithKline Plc's diabetes drug Avandia be pulled from the market because it can hurt the heart, The New York Times reported on Friday."

Yup. Then they go on to say it was specific members of the FDA, not the FDA as a whole.

The article is a bit misleading in the beginning.

But as you said, the fact remains - the FDA has not pulled the drug off the market
