Merck Lawsuits Have Led to Justice for Families; the Same Can Happen with Paxil Lawsuits
[Posted on July 30]
The prescription drug Vioxx (manufactured by Merck) is no longer in existence, only perhaps existing in the nightmares of those who unfortunately fell victim to this arthritis drug. After the dangers of Vioxx had been uncovered, a number of Merck lawsuits had been filed, with many of these lawsuits providing victims of the drug with appropriate justice. However, this wouldn’t be the last prescription drug to cause an immense amount of suffering.
Although most prescription drugs are generally safe and contain the proper warnings regarding potentially dangerous side effects, there are still a few drugs which have caused and may continue to cause a great deal of suffering, and one of these drugs is the anti-depressant Paxil. This prescription drug has been around for nearly 20 years, but the real dangers of Paxil had not been made aware until years after the drug’s release on the market. Indeed, it is now known that Paxil may cause significant harm if taken during pregnancy, and because this fact had not been known until several years ago, it is certainly possible that a sizeable number of children whose mothers took the drug during pregnancy are now suffering from severe birth defects which may include transposition of the great arteries, pulmonary stenosis, and coarctation of the aorta to name just a few.
Many of those and those whose loved ones suffered after taking the prescription drug Vioxx decided to take action by contacting an experienced attorney, and although some who’ve suffered after taking Paxil have done the same, there is perhaps still a large number of families that have yet to seek the justice that they may deserve, and if your family is one which is now suffering and the cause of the suffering may have been related to taking Paxil, then there is no question that you should get in touch with an experienced attorney as soon as possible.
