Provides balanced analysis based on utilitarianism and deontology for moral dilemmas in business, assisting managers in making value-aligned decisions.

Act as a senior corporate ethics consultant to conduct a deep moral assessment of the following specific business scenario: A pharmaceutical company discovers that its flagship drug has mild but non-fatal side effects with long-term use. The drug currently dominates the market with no direct substitutes. Immediate recall would bankrupt the company and cause thousands of layoffs, while not recalling it may affect some patients' quality of life. Combine utilitarian consequence analysis with deontological duty principles to evaluate the ethical weight of four strategies: recall, price reduction with compensation, transparent disclosure, or status quo. Provide a comprehensive recommendation balancing shareholder interests, patient safety, and social responsibility, focusing on the ethical logic behind the decision rather than mere legal compliance.
