Please analyze the following specific ethical dilemma encountered in business operations: A pharmaceutical company discovers that its established basic drug has potential serious side effects for a very small number of individuals with specific genetic profiles after long-term use, but the cost of recall would lead to company bankruptcy and affect medication accessibility for millions of ordinary patients. Please evaluate the ethical weights of both recall and non-recall options by combining the utilitarian principle of the greatest happiness for the greatest number with the deontological perspective of moral responsibility for harm to individuals, and provide a balanced recommendation that balances business sustainability with moral legitimacy, focusing on how to distribute risks and responsibilities among stakeholders.
