There has been controversy surrounding the drug since its introduction into world markets, though. One of the medical professionals who participated in the clinical trials went to prison for nearly five years after pleading guilty to falsifying data to cover up concerns that the drug caused serious liver problems. FDA officials challenged the approval of the drug, and the U.S. Congress held hearings, where it was shown that Telithromycin had been tied to a number of serious health events, including four deaths. As a result, the FDA revised the warning labels on the drug, specifically removing two prior approved uses—acute bacterial sinusitis and acute bacterial conditions tied to chronic bronchitis.
