Dangerous Drugs

Dangerous drugs are typically associated with severe side effects, adverse reactions or unforeseen complications. These drugs may have been approved for use based on incomplete or flawed research, inadequate testing or the suppression of critical safety data by pharmaceutical companies. The consequences of these defective drugs can be far-reaching and may result in life-altering injuries, chronic illnesses or even loss of life.

One significant example of a recalled dangerous drug is Vioxx (rofecoxib), a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to treat pain and inflammation associated with various conditions. It was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1999 but was later found to be associated with an increased risk of heart attacks and strokes. Subsequent investigations revealed that the manufacturer, Merck, had downplayed the drug's risks in their marketing efforts. The recall of Vioxx led to numerous lawsuits, with victims seeking compensation for the devastating consequences they experienced, including heart-related injuries and fatalities.



Unfortunately, many other drugs have caused harm and will likely cause harm in the future. If you believe a dangerous drug caused your injury or ailment, we’re ready to listen.  

Defective Medical Devices

Defective medical devices encompass a wide range of products, including implants, prosthetics, surgical instruments and diagnostic tools. These devices may be subject to recall due to design flaws, manufacturing defects, inadequate testing or the emergence of unforeseen complications.



The consequences of using faulty medical devices can range from severe injuries, infections and organ damage to chronic pain, disability, and in extreme cases, even death.

Examples of defective medical devices that have been recalled in recent years include:

• Zimmer Persona Knee
• Exactech Optetrak Knee
• Stryker Rejuvenate and ABG II Hip Implants
• Johnson & Johnson DePuy ASR Hip Implant
• Biomet M2a Magnum Hip Implant

Recalled medical devices not only result in physical harm but also have far-reaching emotional and financial impacts. Patients and their families may experience prolonged suffering, loss of independence and diminished quality of life. The financial burden of medical expenses, rehabilitation and ongoing treatments can be overwhelming, placing additional strain on individuals and their support systems.

Defective Medical Devices

The devastating consequences of dangerous drugs and defective medical devices should not go unnoticed or unchallenged.

By pursuing legal action, you not only seek compensation for your suffering but also contribute to a safer healthcare system that prioritizes patient well-being over profits.
