Tampa Defective Drug Lawyers

When a prescription drug injures a patient, various parties may be at fault depending on the circumstances. For example, if a doctor prescribes the wrong drug for a particular condition, the injured person may want to file a medical malpractice claim against him or her. When the drug is correctly prescribed, but inherently flawed, the manufacturer may be the defendant in a product liability suit.

If you or a loved one has suffered harm caused by a poorly made or contaminated drug, it is important that you understand your legal options. A successful claim may help you win compensation for medical, financial, and emotional losses that are not your fault.

Cases We Handle

A drug defect can occur at any stage of production, from designing a new formula to shipping the finished product. Our experienced Tampa defective drug lawyers are ready to help you seek damages in cases such as:

• Drug Recalls

Pharmaceutical companies are aware that defective drugs can cause major harm to unsuspecting consumers. They have an important duty to ensure that every product they put on the shelves is reasonably safe.

The Dangers of Drug Defects

The harm that a prescription drug causes will depend on the specific drug, why it is defective, and the overall health of the person taking it. Some potential problems that can be caused by a badly designed or unsafely shipped drug include:

• Blood clots, strokes, and other cardiovascular problems
• Damage to the liver, kidneys, or other major organs
• Psychological effects such as mood swings or suicidal thoughts
• Birth defects when taken by pregnant women
• Muscle damage

No one should have to live with the costs and pain associated with these conditions, especially when they are caused by preventable oversights.
