Background media

Why Are Pharmaceutical Drugs Recalled?

Drugs with deadly or dangerous side effects often make it to the market because their potential dangers were not anticipated during clinical trials. These drugs are classified as defective and have been identified by the FDA as having dangerous side effects that may outweigh whatever benefits they provide. Such an FDA classification often leads to drug recalls, personal injuries, and lawsuits against drug companies. Reasons for drug recalls include:

  • Harmful side effects
  • Consumers are misusing the drug
  • A certain batch of the drug has been contaminated
  • The FDA has discovered a safer alternative to the drug

How Long Do You Have To File A Defective Pharmaceutical Drug Claim?

In Alabama, you will have two years from an injury  to initiate your claim regarding a defective prescription drug. You must file your case before the statute of limitations runs out in order to seek the damages you rightfully deserve. If you fail to file within this time frame, it can be grounds for case dismissal. By working with an experienced pharmaceutical injury lawyer like those at Heninger Garrison Davis in Birmingham, you can rest assured your paperwork will be filed properly and on time, allowing your case to proceed without interruption.

Potentially Dangerous Prescription Drugs

Taxotere

Taxotere lawsuits claim the chemotherapy drug can cause permanent hair loss and eye damage, including excessive tearing. People are currently filing Taxotere lawsuits because they suffered permanent eye damage, and studies have linked these injuries to Taxotere (docetaxel). Drug manufacturer Sanofi-Aventis failed to warn doctors and patients that Taxotere could cause permanent damage despite knowing about the risk for years, according to lawsuits.

Valsartan

This medication, marketed under the brand name Diovan, is often prescribed for treating congestive heart failure as well as high blood pressure. Valsartan has also been found to contain N-Nitrosodimethylamine, or NDMA, which is known to cause certain types of cancer as well as damage to the liver. If the drug was used after January 2015 and the user was diagnosed with one of these types of cancer, we would like to investigate.

Weight Loss Drugs (Ozempic / Mounjaro / Trulicity / Wegovy / Zepbound)

These medications ar prescribed for weight loss and/or the treatment of diabetes. These drugs have been associated with certain serious bowel (stomach) conditions including gastroparesis, blockage requiring surgery, gallbladder issues and pancreatitis. If you used one of these medications since 2022 and have been diagnosed with one of these, we would like to investigate.

Tylenol Use During Pregnancy

Studies have shown that use of Tylenol during later pregnancy (second and/or third trimester) may cause autism, autism disorder and / or ADHD in children that worn born from that pregnancy. If you took Tylenol during pregnancy and had a child diagnosed with one of these conditions, we would like to investigate.

Lew Garrison represented me in defamation of character case that I didn’t even think I had any recourse in. I couldn’t have been happier with the results or the communication that Lew kept throughout the process.

Why Is It So Essential To Hire A Pharmaceutical Drug Injurt Attorney In Birmingham?

If you are battling a serious illness, you need to know that the drugs your doctor prescribes work as intended. Some medications, particularly those designed to treat serious diseases like cancer, diabetes, or a number of other conditions, can have severely debilitating side effects that cause additional health problems. Sometimes the drug company does not adequately notify doctors and patients of the dangers of using their medications. 

It’s hard enough to overcome a major illness—when drug company negligence allows patients to become injured further because their products are harmful, they need to be held accountable. Our legal team has what it takes to extract the appropriate compensation for your suffering, allowing you to rebuild your life after experiencing harmful side effects of a prescription medication. 

Even if you feel you are not ready to file a suit, consult one of our qualified lawyers as soon as possible so that you will know your options. We do not charge any fees upfront. In fact, we will only charge attorney’s fees if we obtain a financial settlement for you. If you don’t win, we won’t get paid a legal fee.
