The Supreme Court is back in session on Monday. One high-profile case they will be taking up involves drugmaker Wyeth.
—Drug maker liability: Vermont musician Diana Levine won a $6.8 million judgment against drugmaker Wyeth after having part of her right arm amputated in 2000 when an anti-nausea drug was injected improperly. Now Wyeth, backed by the Bush administration, wants the high court to rule that Food and Drug Administration regulation of prescription drugs — in this case, approval of warning labels for drugs — overrides state laws and makes it easier for companies to defend against consumers’ claims.
