Ask a Patient Opinion Poll

Have you or your doctor ever reported a serious side effect that you have had to the FDA or the manufacturer?

Voter Comments (the following are opinions of readers and not AskaPatient.com)

• More people need to report serious side effects to the FDA, manufacturers and law enforcement training

• Lipitor and Zocior side effects were so detrimental I am, after 7 years, still unable to recover

• There should be a way for patience to report side effects if the dr is too lazy to do it.
