Bruce Boise, Author of Cold Comfort | $425 Million Pharma Lawsuit Whistleblower & Government Informant

from Success Story with Scott D. Clary · host Success Story Media

Bruce Boise worked for nearly 24 years in the pharmaceutical industry, first as a hospital representative, and then as a sales manager in the Great Lakes region. After losing his job as a whistleblower, he spent portions of the next 17 years working with the United States Justice Department on two separate False Claims Act cases against his former employer, Cephalon/Teva, a neuro biotech company. His story is told in a new book, Cold Comfort: One Man’s Struggle to Stop the Illegal Marketing of Powerful Opioid Drugs and Save Lives. He was featured on CBS-TV’s Whistleblower. Boise, after exposing how Cephalon was illegally marketing off-label prescription drug usage, waited many years to see justice after wearing a wire, losing his job, becoming homeless, and black-balled by the pharmaceutical industry. At one point, he was flipping burgers for ten bucks an hour just to get by. Cephalon settled the case many years later with the United States for $425 million in fines and damages. Today he advocates on behalf of whistleblowers and helps educate the public on the importance of supporting all whistleblowers.   Show Links https://www.bruceboise.com/ https://twitter.com/coldcomfortbook https://amzn.to/39qbiZD (Aff Link - Book)
