Longview Pharmaceutical Injury Attorney
Dangerous Pharmaceutical Claims
Some of the most common injuries suffered as a result of defective products are due to dangerous medical devices and unsafe pharmaceuticals. Although you might think that the medical industry would be the most careful about the design and manufacturing of their products, this is not always the case.
Pharmaceutical manufacturers are expected to provide medicine and devices which have been tested and proven to be safe, the failure to do so is negligence and deserves justice. At Erskine & McMahon. LLP, our Longview defective product attorneys are here to help if you have been hurt.
Why File a Defective or Dangerous Product Claim?
If a medical product has caused you harm, you may be able to bring a claim against the pharmaceutical or device company. Bringing a lawsuit is not only beneficial to you and your family to recover compensation, but it can help ensure a product is taken off the market. A product recall ensures that no one else is hurt by a defective product and holds the company accountable for their negligence.
A few examples of dangerous and defective pharmaceutical products and medical devices include:
- Hip replacement implants
- Transvaginal mesh
- Yaz/Yasmin
- Paxil
- Lexapro
- Birth control
- Anti-depressants
- Talcum or baby powder
- Hernia mesh
- Physiomesh mesh
Holding the Responsible Company Accountable
There are many different ways that defective and dangerous products can be responsible for injury, which includes the design, manufacturing, and advertisement/marketing of the products. For example, a pharmaceutical which is safe to use for its intended purpose but not well labeled can be dangerous if it is used improperly. Other times a pharmaceutical or medical device is unsafe to use altogether because it has a major design flaw.
