St. Louis Defective Drug Lawyer

We take prescription and over-the-counter medications in order to feel better. In fact, most Americans trust that doctors wouldn’t prescribe a drug, and pharmacies wouldn’t sell it, if it were dangerous. But when a drug is tainted or badly formulated, or doesn’t carry important safety warnings, it can actually harm the patient instead of solving the problem.

Unfortunately, more and more evidence shows that manufacturers are willing to cut corners on important safety measures in order to preserve their profits. Drug manufacturers have been accused of covering up negative information in safety studies; aggressively marketing drugs for inappropriate off-label uses; and even planting positive information in the media and medical journals. Very often, this helps preserve the astronomical profits drug companies enjoy from name-brand drugs. For example, the pharmaceutical company Merck was accused of failing to follow up on early evidence that its painkiller Vioxx was associated with increased risk of heart attacks, and later leaving data out of a published safety study. Safety concerns forced Merck to take the drug off the U.S. market in 2004, but sales of Vioxx totaled $2.5 billion the year before.

When pharmaceutical companies take active steps to avoid disclosing negative information about their drugs, they are failing to warn patients about matters that patients must know about to make informed decisions. Less often, a company may introduce a serious manufacturing defect by manufacturing tainted, oversized or undersized drugs. Patients who suffer serious health problems because of this wrongdoing have the right to sue the drug companies for fair compensation. This includes compensation for physical pain, emotional anguish and any permanent disability or loss of a loved one, as well as all of the financial costs of the injury.
