Pradaxa Lawsuit

admin — Sat, 21 Apr 2012 01:51:55 +0000

Pradaxa is a new blood thinning drug. It is in a class of drugs known as anticoagulants or blood thinners often prescribed for stroke or blood clots. Pradaxa was approved by the FDA in 2010 as a blood thinner that was superior to Warfarin because it allegedly required less monitoring. However, users of Warfarin who experience abdominal bleeding can counteract those side effects with Vitamin K, while there is no similar solution available to address Pradaxa bleeding. The FDA received hundreds of reports of Pradaxa problems involving internal bleeding and other complications, including death.

If you or a loved one took Pradaxa and suffered any of these side effects, you may have a substantial claim:

Severe internal bleeding,
Gastrointestinal bleeding,
Brain hemorrhage,
Kidney bleeding,
Heart attack and>
Death

“Metal on Metal” HIPS

admin — Tue, 03 Apr 2012 21:01:57 +0000

There are growing safety concerns about metal-on-metal hip replacements, which recent studies suggest are more likely to fail than traditional plastic hips.

Metal hip joints have been under scrutiny due to reports of pain and swelling that have sometimes required removal.

In 2010, Johnson & Johnson recalled roughly 90,000 DePuy ASR XL Acetabular System hip implants and DePuy ASR hip resurfacing implants.

The FDA has asked device companies to conduct additional follow-up studies to monitor problems with the implants. Recently, British experts said doctors should stop using metal hip joints because data shows they have to be fixed or replaced more often than older implants.

In addition to the hips recalled by Johnson & Johnson, we are also investigating possible actions against other metal-on-metal hip components including hip products made by Stryker, Wright, and Zimmer.

Individuals who have “metal on metal” hip implants should see their doctors about any concerns, especially if they are experiencing problems such as unexplained hip pain, or loosening of their implant, or failure of hip replacement, or have had or need to have additional hip surgery to replace their implant.

If you or a loved one has suffered any of these problems with your hip implant you may have a “significant” claim. Our law firm does not represent the manufactures of any hip implant devices, but rather we are handling personal injury cases against those manufacturers.

“Vaginal Mesh” lawsuits

admin — Wed, 26 Oct 2011 15:24:34 +0000

Some women who received transvaginal mesh/sling products (also called pelvic mesh or vaginal mesh) have suffered from serious complications. From 2005 to 2010, there have been nearly 4,000 injuries reported to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) following the placement of a transvaginal mesh device.

A transvaginal mesh patch is a surgically implanted device that stretches across the vaginal wall to add extra support to damaged tissues. By adding strength to damaged vaginal walls, the vaginal mesh patches can be effective treatment for a number of conditions that may occur after childbirth and pregnancy. The conditions they are normally designed to correct include pelvic organ prolapse (POP) – a condition in which organs of the lower abdominal region slip out of place – and stress urinary incontinence, which is characterized by the inability to control urination. Unfortunately, the failure of these products can lead to the need for multiple operations to remove the mesh and to repair extensive damage caused by the products.

If you or a loved one have a transvaginal mesh patch and subsequently suffered any of the following problems you could have a substantial claim:

Chronic vaginal drainage
Erosion of the vaginal tissue
Feeling as though something is protruding from the vagina
Lower back pain
Pain during intercourse
Perforations of the bowel, bladder or blood vessels
Pressure or feeling of “fullness” in the lower abdomen
Reoccurrence of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) or stress urinary incontinence (SUI)
Urinary problems
Vaginal bleeding
Vaginal infections
Vaginal pain not related to intercourse
Vaginal scarring

Actos – “Bladder Cancer” Problems

admin — Wed, 31 Aug 2011 05:56:00 +0000

Actos (pioglitazone) is a medication manufactured and sold for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes. The drug is part of the same class of medications as Avandia, which has been linked to an increased risk of heart problems. As a result of concerns about Avandia side effects, sales of Actos have grown substantially in recent years.

New research suggests that users of Actos may face an increased risk of bladder cancer. The potential risk of Actos cancer problems is now being reviewed by health regulators in the United States and other countries throughout the world. It appears that the manufacturer of Actos may have known for some time about the cancer risks.

If you or a loved one was on “Actos” and have now been diagnosed with “bladder cancer” you or your loved one may have a substantial claim!
