Has Tylenol sued the Trump admin yet? This can't be good for their sales.
Nah, their patent on acetominaphen is expired, so they have little real interest in defending it today. Slap another brand on their various meds that don't contain it, and call it a day.
They're still constantly using their brand name, rather than the generic chemical name. I think they'd def have grounds to sue.
I agree they have grounds, but I was approaching it from the angle of if they would bother, or need to for that matter.
Trump is as friendly with big pharma and the big corpbrations as any politician - behind closed doors he'll likely say or do anything to keep them happy, and they know it. Their lawyers may contact his lawyers, but we'll likely never hear of it unless both sides decide to leverage legal/political theater to their mutual benefit somehow, at the taxpayers/consumers' expense.
