The final data on Naproxyn was pretty weak after all
“Steven Nissen of the Cleveland Clinic, likened releasing a warning on naproxen to yelling ‘fire’ in a crowded auditorium. He said he hoped that the medical community could learn from the experience. ‘It caused a panic that was unnecessary,’ Nissen said, ‘and it shouldn’t have happened, and I hope it doesn’t happen again.'”
I have written in the past that the preliminary data wasn’t even statistically significant. Too bad the damage has been already done.
