In December 2005, the FDA issued a health alert to all doctors and patients about the potential dangers of taking Paxil during the first trimester of a pregnancy. Studies have shown that pregnant women using Paxil in the first three months of pregnancies are twice as likely to have a baby with a heart defect. These defects have been holes in the ventricles and atria of the heart.

When having a child, the last thing parents want or need to worry about is the possibility of their baby being harmed during the delivery. While most births go smoothly, some have complications. It is estimated that five out of every 1000 children born in the US will suffer some type of birth injury. Birth injuries can range from minor, like bruising, to a life-altering diagnosis of cerebral palsy. If your child was injured at birth, contact an experienced birth injury lawyer to learn more about your legal options. A lawyer experienced in birth injury litigation can help you understand your rights.
Q: What's the difference between a birth defect and a birth injury?
A: Birth injuries are generally caused by something that went wrong during delivery itself, while birth defects usually involve harm to a baby that arose prior to birth due to something that happened during or before the pregnancy.
Q: What kinds of situations give rise to a lawsuit for birth injuries?
A: Most of these cases occur when a doctor fails to adequately assess or respond to conditions and/or complications during a woman's pregnancy or delivery, or when a woman takes a prescription drug during pregnancy that causes harm to the baby.
