What was that drug for arthritis?

[deepeddygirl]

The patient that Carter treated at the end mentioned an arthritis drug.
Was the drug one that had been mentioned previously? Was it supposed to
cause some horrible side effects, or was this the way TPTB let us know
that there are *good* drugs out there, not just *scary* ones?

It wasn't what Carter had mentioned before. The patientat the end said
he was taking Renuvium. A quick Google search turns up no hits, so that
must be a made up drug name. Earlier in the ep, Carter mentioned Vioxx
and Rezulin, both of which have been recalled due to user deaths.
