Doherty Loses Vioxx Case

Merck gets a reprieve in the most recent Vioxx lawsuit.

In a setback to tens of thousands of Americans whose loved ones died (as many as 60,000 are dead) and others who suffered heart attacks and strokes, a jury in New Jersey did not agree with the claim of Elaine Doherty, a homemaker from Lawrenceville, N.J., who alleged that she took VIOXX daily from June 28, 2001, until she suffered a heart attack on Jan. 19, 2004, at age 65. She continued to take the medicine until Merck voluntarily withdrew it from the market in September 2004.
