Counterfeit Drugs: A New Source of Product Liability?
August 01, 2003
Drug counterfeiting robs pharmaceutical manufacturers of their investment in patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade dress.

It undermines the integrity of and consumer confidence in the American health care industry and in the government's ability to regulate it.
