Yes, because... More likely to help.
Medical advancements, by nature are designed to save or improve lives. The possibility of suing mean that medical researchers are careful before releasing - too careful if anything. It is therefore much more likely that a new medicine will be helpful than harmful to human health (though this is not impossible). If these two propositions are accepted, it is likely that a new release will save more humans lives than it harms. Ergo, it should be released.
Selling defective medication does not help people. Whenever a pharmaceutical sells defective medication, unnecessary deaths result.
A recent case is of a two year old boy who died of liver failure because the strawberry flavoured children's Tylenol his parents gave him was not really safe.
"Daniel and Katy Moore of Ellensburg, Wash., claim 2-year-old River Moore was given Very Berry Strawberry flavored Children's Tylenol for a slight fever late on July 22, 2010 and began spitting up blood 30 minutes later.[1] He was rushed to a hospital and died the next day of liver failure. The family's lawyer, Joseph Messa of Philadelphia, said Thursday that the liquid medicine contained excessive acetaminophen that damaged the child's liver, causing his death"[2] "The newest development in the Yaz litigation is the settlement of a case in which 26 states sued Bayer AG for misleading advertising regarding potential risks of Yaz and improperly broadening promotion of Yaz to include symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) when Yaz was not approved to treat this condition. From 2004 to 2008, the FDA received 50 reports of death linked to Yaz... If you have suffered serious gallbladder injury, pulmonary embolism or stroke which associated with your use of Yaz, our defective drug attorneys will work hard to get you the best results possible. The lawsuits filed regarding the dangerous side effects of Yaz involve both dangerous blood clotting issues and gallbladder disease."-[3]- ^ http://www.lieffcabraser.com/personal-injury-mass-torts/case/430/acetaminophen-and-tylenol-liver-failure
