Zelnorm is another drug that has been linked to higher incidence of heart attack and stroke. The manufacturer of Zelnorm, Novartis, marketed this drug for use in patients with irritable bowel syndrome. They have since stopped Zelnorm upon recommendation by the FDA that Novartis do so. This recommendation came in the wake of a study showing that Zelnorm is associated with an increased risk of serious adverse cardiovascular events.
