Act as a corporate ethics committee to conduct a deep ethical assessment of the following specific business scenario: A major pharmaceutical company discovers that its best-selling drug has minor but negligible side effects with long-term use, yet discontinuing it would cause some patients' conditions to worsen. Combine the utilitarian principle of the greatest happiness for the greatest number with the deontological requirement of respecting patient autonomy and informed consent to analyze the moral weight of three strategies: concealing information, issuing public warnings, or initiating a recall. Avoid simple right-or-wrong judgments; instead, construct a multi-dimensional evaluation framework including stakeholder impact, legal risks, brand reputation, and social trust. Finally, output an advisory action guide that aims to balance business sustainability with patient welfare, ensuring the decision-making process is transparent and adheres to the highest ethical standards.
