Drug Recalls and Side Effects

Any prescription medication carries with it some degree of risk, and even the most common of medications such as Tylenol can cause serious injury if incorrectly used. But, as patients, we also rely on pharmaceutical companies and physicians to correctly prescribe medication and inform us of the potential risks.

When these safeguards of prescription medication fail to meet their legal obligations resulting in serious injury or a fatality, the law allows you to seek compensation. We have seen, along with the boom in new and expensive medications, cases such as those involving drug recalls, including Celebrex, Phen Fen and Vioxx, where unstudied side effects caused harm and even death.

Along with the negligence of pharmaceutical makers, the medical malpractice of doctors can be equally dangerous, with unanticipated side effects suffered as a result of drug interactions and incorrect doses.
