Dangerous Pharmaceuticals
Millions of Americans take prescription and over-the-counter medications to aid in the treatment of various medical conditions. Many drugs approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration are later shown to produce dangerous side effects. In these cases, the manufacturer of the drug, the doctor that prescribed it, the hospital or pharmacy that dispensed the drug may be held liable for injuries to patients.
Tragically, there are a still a number of dangerous drugs still on the market today. Those who have suffered health problems resulting from use of defective drugs may be entitled compensation. An Indianapolis dangerous drug and pharmaceutical lawyer can help you if you have been injured by:
VIOXX®
VIOXX® (rofecoxib), a COX-2 inhibitor designed as a pain reliever for patients suffering from arthritis and severe menstrual cramps, was originally approved by the FDA only to be recalled by the manufacturer, Merck & Co., Inc., in September of 2004. Studies have shown that long-term VIOXX® use may increase the risk of strokes, cardiovascular disease, and stomach ulcers.
CELEBREX®
CELEBREX®, a pain reliever for arthritis and joint inflammation, is still on the market despite its association with gastrointestinal bleeding, stomach ulcers, and even death. Studies have also linked CELEBREX® use to increased risk of heart attacks, blood clots, and strokes.
Bextra®
A COX–2 inhibitor used to treat pain caused by arthritis and joint inflammation, Bextra® has recently come under scrutiny as being potentially dangerous, following studies that link the drug to respiratory infections, stomach bleeding, and increased risk of cardiovascular problems.
