Other declarations

12 Years ago I wrote a book. It was bought and distributed free by a pharmaceutical company. I cant remember the name and the only product was ezetimibe. They bought 8,000 copies. The book was about the 2004 GP contract and not pharmaceuticals. The product has clearly been sold on and the name is no longer on the list of manufacturers. A web search reveals it was probably Schering Plough
