DANGEROUS DRUG ATTORNEYS IN VIRGINIA

Seek Justice for Harm Caused by Unsafe Medications in Virginia

Every year, thousands of individuals are seriously injured or die from prescription and over-the-counter drugs they believed to be safe. Patients trust individuals in the medical profession, including pharmacists, to provide medications that will not harm them.

In the U.S., approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or a prescription from a doctor the patient knows and trusts is enough for most people to assume a high degree of safety. Still, dangerous drug injuries happen with alarming frequency.

Unfortunately, the FDA inadequately tests some dangerous drugs before they are made available to the public. In some cases, medications do not have sufficient warnings on their labels, leading to serious illnesses ranging from high blood pressure to liver failure.

Drug manufacturers have a duty to carry out extensive research on the possible effects of any product before it is approved for sale to the public. Unfortunately, far from helping people to overcome illness and disease, some pharmaceutical manufacturers have actually harmed consumers.

If you've suffered in any way because of a dangerous drug, please contact the Virginia drug injury attorneys at Kalfus & Nachman. Call us today for a free consultation at (855) 880-8163.

Understanding the Impact of Defective Drugs in Virginia

The pharmaceutical industry, spurred on by potential profits, sometimes rushes into launching products before their long-term side effects have been fully realized. The FDA is expected to protect our interests, but may allow manufacturers to carry out vital tests on their own products, thus bypassing an essential step in ensuring our well-being.

It is a sad fact that the consequences of some dangerous prescription or over-the-counter drugs are not seen until the damage has already been done, including:

• Hemorrhages leading to a stroke, which may prove fatal
• Heart attack
• Diabetes
• Internal organ damage
• Depression which may lead to suicide
