Consider a Paxil Lawsuit If You Believe Your Child’s Birth Defect was caused by Paxil
[Posted on April 05]
Raising a child with a birth defect can be extremely painful for a family, especially if it’s suspected that the birth defect was caused by Paxil. It seems unfathomable that a prescription drug could cause so much pain, but it can, and many families have found this out the hard way. Needless to say, some of these families are coming forward with a Paxil lawsuit in order to win justice and compensation for their suffering.
The link between Paxil and some birth defects is now an undeniable fact, so much so that in 2005 the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a warning regarding this drug’s risk of causing birth defects. However, the sad fact is that this warning has come too late for many families. Although it is not known exactly how many mothers took Paxil while pregnant after this drug’s release on the market in 1992, the numbers are surely staggering as the estimate is around 2.5 million. Without a doubt, some families have been hurt and continue to suffer, and some of them are now interested in seeking compensation from the maker of Paxil, GlaxoSmithKline. In fact, a landmark lawsuit against the maker of Paxil was recently won by a mother whose child is suffering from a heart defect as a result of the mother taking Paxil while pregnant. This Paxil lawsuit is just one of many which will surely be filed within the coming years.
Is your family in need of justice? If you believe that your child’s birth defect may have been the result of taking the prescription drug Paxil while pregnant, then you should contact a qualified Paxil attorney. Your attorney will be able to explain the litigation process to you, and if he or she believes that enough evidence exists which could convince a judge and jury that the maker of Paxil was negligent and contributed to your child’s birth defect, then your attorney will be able to begin the Paxil lawsuit process.
