Dangerous & Defective Medical Devices
First, Do No Harm…
All pharmaceutical products, prescription drugs and medical devices must adhere to strict state and Federal guidelines regarding safe use and be approved by the Food & Drug Administration (FDA). We use these products everyday assuming that they have been properly manufactured, tested and approved. They are, after all, intended to help alleviate serious medical conditions so when these drugs or devices are found to cause harm, the injured parties and their families have the legal right to seek compensation for their injuries.
At Bailey & Galyen, our Personal Injury Attorneys have assisted clients nationwide in the successful negotiation and litigation of defective pharmaceutical and medical devices lawsuits. We understand the emotional, as well as legal component of these cases and offer a compassionate, client-focused practice for injuries related to:
- Dangerous Drugs / Pharmaceuticals – VIOXX, Celebrex, Zyprexa, Prempro (Hormone Replacement Therapy – HRT), Seroquel, Propulsid, Ephedra, Baycol, Rezulin, PhenFen, Digitek (Digoxin tablets) and many others
- Defective Medical Devices – Hip / Joint Replacement, Heart Valves, Zeiss Opthalmic System, Bypass Connectors, Patient Lifts
- Unrevealed side-effects
- Misrepresentation
- Negligence
A Note About “Medical Devices”
It should be noted that a defective medical device need not be a product used to directly address a medical condition; rather it can also include items used to assist sick people during treatment, including wheelchairs, lifts, heating pads and other products.
In an effort to speed up the process of testing and approving drugs for waiting consumers, the FDA has released many pharmaceuticals that are only now being shown to cause serious side effects and medical conditions, sometimes many years after the individual used the product. Negligence need not be willful in these cases – if a drug is found to do damage, the manufacturer, prescribing doctor and others may be held responsible under statutes of “strict liability” and be compelled to deliver compensation.
