If you or a loved one has suffered serious consequences from taking a dangerous medication, please contact us today to see if you have a case.

Drugs may be recalled or withdrawn from the market for a variety of reasons but are typically done so for threatening the health of the patient. If a drug is considered dangerous and poses a health risk it should be recalled to prevent any further damage to other patients. It is the responsibility of the pharmaceutical manufacturer to provide the public with safe and effective medications and dietary supplements. Side effects and fatalities associated with the use of pharmaceutical drugs are the responsibility of the manufacturers who will be held legally responsible for the effects of their products.

If you have taken any of the following drugs, you may be at risk for serious side effects, many of which may be fatal:

• Duract
• Ephedra
• Fen-Phen
• Lotronex
• Posicor
• PPA
• Propulsid
• Rezulin
• Trovan

If you are taking any of these prescription drugs, you should speak to your physician about alternative treatment for your medical condition, as well as undergo an examination to determine if you have suffered any side effects from the drug.

The following drugs have recently been in the news for causing patients serious and deadly cardiovascular side effects, including heart attacks and strokes.

• Bextra
• Celebrex
• Vioxx

If you have been injured by a defective drug, you should save the remaining medication, instructions, box, and packaging that accompanied it because they may all be used as evidence to help your case.

If you or a loved one has suffered serious side effects after taking prescription drugs which have been recalled or withdrawn from the market, call Wingate, Russotti & Shapiro today for your free consultation or click here to fill out our convenient and confidential on-line New York case evaluation form.
