Marketing a Potentially Harmful Product

The Swiss pharmaceutical global corporation Hoffman-La-

Roche has made a major breakthrough in the relief of serious
disabling disease that affects 3 percent of the world’s population.
Their new product, Tigason, is the first product that effectively
controls severe cases of psoriasis and dyskeratoses, skin disorders
that cause severe flaking of the skin. Sufferers from this disease
frequently retreat from the society because of fear of rejection; thus
losing their families and jobs. Tigason does not cure the disease but
it causes the symptoms to disappear.
There is one potential problem. Because of the risk of
damage to unborn babies, women should not take the drug for one
year before conception or during pregnancy. Hoffman-La-Roche is
well aware of the potential for harm to the company if the product is
misused. The marketing department is asked to formulate a strategy
for disseminating product information and controlling Tigason’s use.
