Pharmaceutical Litigation

Every year, thousands of people die from fatal reactions to prescription medications they believed were safe.  Even more frightening is the increasing number of people who suffer harm due to the serious side effects of prescribed and over the counter drugs.  These staggering numbers have led to a growing need for consumer protection against harmful medications.  Prescription drugs like Fen-Phen, Ritalin, Ephedra, and Oxycotin have recently been recalled due to the dangerous side effects they present to consumers. 

Pharmaceutical litigation allows consumers who have experienced adverse reactions to prescribed medications seek damages for their pain and suffering. 

Dangerous Prescription Drugs
The public tends to believe that, because a drug is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), it will not harm them.  At times, this perception is false.  FDA approved drugs can be defective.  Unfortunately, some drugs do not go through adequate testing, which can lead to serious health risks on the behalf of consumers.  Defective, FDA approved drugs, have cause problems that range from vision problems to acute liver failure.  The following is a list of prescription drugs recently recalled by the FDA:

  • Accolate
  • Ephedrine
  • Fosamax
  • Gamimune
  • Ortho Evra
  • Viagra
  • Vioxx
