Note that this seems to concern only published articles that were

meta-analysis or comments, so it appears Wyeth did not ghostwrite

articles describing the results of experimentations or tests.

Wyeth's Use of Medical Ghostwriters Questioned

Published: December 12, 2008

Wyeth, the pharmaceutical company, paid ghostwriters to produce

medical journal articles favorable to its hormone replacement therapy

Prempro, according to Congressional letters seeking more information

about the company's involvement in medical ghostwriting. At least one

article was published even after a federal study found the drug raised

the risk of breast cancer.
