When Can You File A Lawsuit?
Marketing Defects: Pharmaceutical companies have an obligation to warn consumers about the adverse effects associated with the use of their drugs. Failure-to-warn claims against drug manufacturers are commonly filed by attorneys in an effort to protect consumers. When products are not accompanied by sufficient warnings, have side effects not made public, or are labeled improperly - may give people injured by complications a means of seeking legal compensation. Doctors and patients that aren't adequately warned of the potential risks and severe side effects results in prescriptions and people taking medications they wouldn't otherwise have taken if they were properly informed. Consumers deserve transparency.
Safety & Design Defects: In some cases, design or manufacturing can lead to unsafe defects in the products which can cause harm. Defects in the manufacturing process which lead to injury may allow plaintiffs to seek remedy for their injuries. Big Pharma has a reasonable expectation to provide safe products. Product liability claims can help you seek compensation if you suffered injuries after taking a faulty product.
Your product liability lawyer will be able to help evaluate the merits of your claim, and whether a settlement may be available.
Is The FDA Failing Consumers?
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is responsible for setting health standards, standards of quality, and regulating the marketing and use of pharmaceuticals. While they provide the first line of defense in consumer safety, a number of high profile fraud and major adverse effects cases have raised eyebrows in recent years.
