'Lawsuit claims Pfizer hurt, killed Nigerian children'.

A later example of a pharmaceutical company which uses animals in
experiments, but also tested its drugs on humans is described by The Nando
Times in the article 'Lawsuit claims Pfizer hurt, killed Nigerian
children'.

This reported how a lawsuit had been filed in Manhattan which accused
Pfizer Inc. of causing brain damage (and sometimes death) to Nigerian
children during a period of 'secret testing' in 1996 of Trovan, a new drug
to deal with meningitis.

The lawsuit claims 'unspecified damages' for thirty children who
participated in the testing of Tovan, 'an unproven drug administered in a
form never before tested on humans'. The lawsuit lists as plantiffs, seven
of the families of the eleven children who died after being involved in
the testing.
The lawsuit also claims: 'Rather than provide the children with a safe,
effective and proven therapy for bacterial meningitis, Pfizer chose to
select children to participate in a medical experiment of a new, untested
and unproven drug without first obtaining their informed consent'. It goes
on to say that Pfizer 'hurried plans to carry out its tests', and
proceeded in a manner which violated international law, federal
regulations and medical ethics.[82]
