			17. High 
									Court Rejects Pfizer Hormone Therapy Lawsuit 
									Appeal 
									
									Date Published: Wednesday, June 22nd, 2011 
									
									The U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear a 
									Pfizer Inc. unit’s appeal of a $58 million 
									award in a case 
									
									against Premarin and Prempro menopause 
									drugs. 
									
									Three Nevada women who contracted breast 
									cancer after taking the company’s menopause 
									drugs 
									
									were awarded the amount in a 2007 case. 
									
									The rebuff leaves the amount as the largest 
									to be upheld on appeal in thousands of 
									hormonereplacement 
									
									drug suits. Over six million women took 
									Prempro and other menopause drugs before a 
									
									2002 study pointed out their links to 
									cancer. At one point Pfizer and his units 
									faced more than 10,000 
									
									claims, according to lawyers for former 
									users. 
									
									The Nevada Supreme Court concluded jurors 
									properly held Pfizer’s Wyeth unit 
									responsible for hiding 
									
									he breast-cancer 
									risks of Premarin and Prempro. The original 
									2007 case resulted in an award totaling 
									
									$134.1 million to Arlene Rowatt, Jeraldine 
									Scofield and Pamela Forrester. The trial 
									judge later 
									reduced the verdict to $57.6 million. 
									
									Yearly sales of Wyeth’s hormone‐replacement 
									drugs exceeded $2 billion before a 2002 
									study, 
									
									sponsored by the U.S. National Institutes of 
									Health, suggested that women using the 
									medicines had a 
									24 percent higher risk of breast cancer. 
									
									Pfizer, the world’s largest drug maker, 
									acquired Wyeth in 2009 settled a third of 
									the pending cases 
									
									over its Prempro menopause drug. The company 
									said last month that it set aside $772 
									million to 
									resolve claims over the medicine.
