What is the name of the medicine that supposedly killed ten people a year or so ago? It was big in the media.?

I think it was a heart medication, and there was a big lawsuit over it.

I remember hearing about Vioxx. I don't know if it killed anyone. That's not a heart med though. It's for arthritis.

Go to Mercola.com and type in Tamiflu or Vioxx.
Or do a broader search, for example heart medications or law suit and you'll find a whole load of info.
