Merck wins Vioxx trial in Alabama state court

A Birmingham, Ala., jury handed Merck & Co. its second victory of the week in a Vioxx product liability trial, finding the drug maker did not hide the health risks associated with its withdrawn arthritis drug, or knowingly market a faulty product.
Whitehouse Station, N.J.-based Merck had been sued by Gary Albright, 59, who blamed Vioxx for his 2001 heart attack.
