Description from goodreads.com:
Strong Medicine, through the course of the story, shows the growth of Celia Jordan as a businesswoman, a wife, a mother, and a friend. The book covers a significant period of time, in its attempt to show Celia's growth, it also covers a great number of historical events in its story that were significant in the pharmaceutical and medical world; the most important one being the tragedy that transpired after the introduction of the drug Thalidomide in the markets in the 1950s-60s. Strong Medicine is a commentary on the rise and fall of the pharmaceutical industry masquerading as fiction, and it makes for an interesting read.
