Thalidomide was first marketed in 1957 in West Germany, where it was available over the counter.56 When first released, thalidomide was promoted for anxiety, trouble sleeping, "tension", and morning sickness.67 While it was initially thought to be safe in pregnancy, concerns regarding birth defects arose in 1961, and the medication was removed from the market in Europe that year.65 The total number of embryos affected by use during pregnancy is estimated at 10,000, of which about 40% died around the time of birth.63 Those who survived had limb, eye, urinary tract, and heart problems.5 Its initial entry into the US market was prevented by Frances Kelsey at the FDA.7 The birth defects caused by thalidomide led to the development of greater drug regulation and monitoring in many countries.75
It was approved for medical use in the United States in 1998.3 It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.8 It is available as a generic medication.4
