Anti-inflammatory drugs under fire.

Abstract:
At a meeting to discuss two of Ciba-Geigy’s anti-inflammatory drugs, phenylbutazone and oxyphenylbutazone, Professor Walter von Wartburg from Ciba-Geigy maintained that although there were problems of control in the Third World to withdraw drugs from these countries would be to impose double standards.
