FDA panel OKs drug aimed at blacks

http://www.cnn.com/2005/HEALTH/conditions/06/17/racial.pill.ap/index.html
WASHINGTON (AP) -- A drug targeted specifically for black Americans with heart problems is on track to become the first drug in the U.S. marketed to a specific racial group.

Very skeptical about this. I don't know much about the clinical trial process for drugs, but this article leaves me with allot of questions (so what else is new!). - Vox

You are right, this article leaves you asking more questions than the information it provides. I wonder how you come to the conclusion that it would help one particular ethnic group more than another. I am not comfortable with the implications of this at all.
