Drug recalls happen when a medication is pulled from the market because it is unsafe, defective, or mislabeled. A major example is Vioxx, a painkiller made by Merck. It was popular for treating arthritis and chronic pain, but studies later showed it increased the risk of heart attacks and strokes. In 2004, Merck voluntarily withdrew Vioxx, making it one of the largest recalls in history and showing why strict monitoring and transparent research are vital for public safety.
