Holding Big Pharma Accountable
Boston, Massachusetts Oct 16, 2023 (Issuewire.com) – Dr. Vincent Politio, a former Shire Pharmaceuticals employee, filed a Whistleblower complaint after being terminated by Shire Pharmaceuticals. Dr. Polito was fired by Shire on August 24, 2016, immediately after he reported the violation of laws to the United States Attorney’s Office in Washington, D.C.
Dr. Polito claims he was asked to investigate and create a DEA-compliant Suspicious Order Monitoring system (SOM) to monitor and report suspicious orders. Dr. Polito alleges his concerns of Shire being out of compliance with the DEA’s regulations were repeatedly downplayed and ignored by his superiors. He claims executives interfered with his work by changing his presentations to other key executives.
