Talk:Wyeth

:* The European Commissioner for Health and Consumer Protection blamed the presence of illegal steroids in the food supply on "fraudulent exchange and disposal of pharmaceutical waste". A Wyeth factory disposing of the byproducts from synthetic progesterone manufacture was the source of the contamination. 
I have put it back in. The same user changed my active voice sentence to passive voice in another edit - no good writing midge but thanks for removing POV style lang which came from the source. Mccready 07:02, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Whatever.  I didn't think that a company whose name is not mentioned and I forget using wastewater to make something that was then fed to animals was really either encyclopaedic about Wyeth, nor that the paragraph was well-enough written to remain in the page in its present form. It looks more like a piece of something else to me.  The phrasing is really rather painful, and it is arguably libellous. Midgley 12:09, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Midgely deletion of material

message: The controversial drug was not Phentermine, but fenfluramine.  Wyeths produced it, along with their licenced dexifenfluramine. Fenflurimine is actually a combination of both levo- and dexi- fenfluramine.
The gold standard on this subject is the book Dispensing with the Truth: The Victims, the Drug Companies, and the Dramatic Story Behind the Battle over Fen-Phen" by "Alicia Mundy"

thread_title: Someone more familar with editting please correct the folowing 

message: I'm not experienced enough to edit this page, but there are issues about this company that should be present and aren't.  Is there someone that can add this info, please?
1) There is almost certainly a link between Prempro and Premarin and increased breast cancer risk.
2) The methods of obtaining and producing Prempro and Premarin are controversial as they involve animal cruelty.
3) Wyeth continues to push Congress to pass legislation (Bioidentical Health Legislation) to make it illegal for doctors to prescribe compounded medicines which are in direct competition to some of Wyeth's products.  These alternative medications are safe and effective, available by prescription only, and necessary to many thousands of patients.
Thank you much!

thread_title: Serious controversies about Wyeth products 

message: :"Wyeth Pharmaceuticals hired ghostwriters to produce at least 40 articles in medical journals supporting the use of hormone-replacement drugs by menopausal women, according to files unsealed as part of lawsuits over the products."
Reliable sources: Philadelphia Enquirer, UPI,  The New York Times. This is a serious matter and must be added to this article. --Stormwatch (talk) 05:16, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

message: Hey, Dristan redirects to this page. How come there is no Wikipedia entry for that drug?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.151.188.146 (talk) 19:52, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

I have assessed this article as C-class and identified the following areas for improvement:
* The article needs to be written in an enyclopedic tone
* The article needs references

thread_title: Assessment comments

message: Why does this article read like Wyeth no longer exists?
As a subsidiary of Pfizer, all of the drugs that Wyeth manufactured at still labeled and marked with the Wyeth logo and as far as I can tell, the Wyeth "division" of Pfizer still operates much like it did before the purchase.
Shouldn't this article read like all other subsidiaries - in the present tense?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by IndigoAK200 (talk • contribs) 02:28, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

message: Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted.
Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia.
This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link.
If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting.
If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page.
If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta.
When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags.
The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true.
Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
