Surprising Number of Medications Subject to U.S. & Florida Drug Recall-Lawyer Stands Ready to Protect Victims’ Rights
When your doctor prescribes medication for your ailment, both you and your doctor expect that drug to work the way it’s supposed to-the way the pharmaceutical companies behind the drug say it will work. Unfortunately, drug regulation processes are not a full-proof as the government and pharmaceutical lobbyists would like you to believe and harmful drugs make it through to drug store shelves all too often.
Here’s a partial list of dangerous drugs that originally passed FDA regulation muster only to be recalled after numerous people were harmed or killed by the drug:
- Baycol
- Bextra
- Fen-Phen
- Levomethadyl Acetate
- Lotronex
- Natalizumab
- Pemoline-recalled after 30 years on the market and connected with 21 known cases of liver failure, including 13 that resulted in liver replacement or death
- Permax-recalled after 19 years on the market after being connected with heart valve damage
- PPA
- Propulsid
- Raplon
- ReNu with Moisture Loc
- Rezulin
- Serzone
- Technetium fanolesomab
- Vioxx
- Zelnorm
Injury and illness caused by dangerous medications can be traumatic and, in some cases, can impact the rest of your life. It is important to hold pharmaceutical companies accountable for the damage they cause. You shouldn’t have to pay for their negligence. Plus, holding pharmaceutical companies accountable through personal injury claims and product liability and injury lawsuits motivates these companies to increase testing and safety protocols and thereby decrease danger to other citizens by keeping dangerous drugs off the market.
