The “Cure” Can Kill

In the last year, all the cable and broadcast networks have aired stories about contamination of Heparin and other Charleston dangerous drugs manufactured in China and widely used in the United States.  Until the news media reported the wide-spread contamination, Heparin ranked high among physicians’ drugs-of-choice for serious medical conditions.  Because many large HMO’s import generic drugs from China to reduce their costs and boost their profits, and because China often fails to monitor drug-manufacturers’ processes and compliance with safety rules, many American patients have suffered significant injury from contaminated Heparin.  Some patients even have died from relatively small doses of the contaminated medications.

Often, patients suffer serious consequences from tainted medications and never even think of blaming the drugs for their deteriorating conditions.  Exactly the drugs that were supposed to cure them now make them sicker.  Many #ga patients have suffered very serious complications from taking toxic meds, and many never have completely recovered.  Especially because Heparin numbers among the most commonly prescribed medications for heart disease, one of Charleston’s most common conditions, many patients never suspected their problems originated in the drugs.

Pharmaceutical manufacturers and distributors have an obligation to protect the public from health hazards of all kinds.  When they fail to meet these obligations, customers are entitled to compensation for the harm and loss they have suffered.  Charleston dangerous drug attorneys have represented hundreds of clients in Huntington product liability cases, and their results speak for themselves.  Please, carefully examine all the information on the Underwood & Proctor Law offices website, and then contact us at (866) 400-3920 to schedule a free preliminary consultation with one of our product liability specialists.

If you or a loved one is in need of legal assistance, call Underwood Law Offices at (304) 522-0508 or toll free (304) 522-0508 or toll free (866) 400-3920 or submit an online questionnaire to contact a Huntington dangerous drug lawyer. The initial consultation is free of charge, and if we agree to handle your case, we will work on a contingency fee basis, which means we get paid for our services only if there is a monetary recovery of funds. In many cases, a lawsuit must be filed before an applicable expiration date, known as a statute of limitations. Please call right away to ensure that you do not waive your right to possible compensation.
