In November 2002, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a warning about Vioxx. The FDA has received about 20 reports of serious reactions among Vioxx users since sales began. The FDA also mandated product label changes for Vioxx. Merck, the manufacturer of Vioxx, sent letters to thousands of physicians alerting them to the new warnings.
