Corporate Push to Promote Prescription Drugs to the Market – At the Expense of Consumer Safety
It seems like recalls are happening more often these days. One of the primary reasons is a growing awareness that many drugs may be contaminated with carcinogens.
These concerns have led to complete recalls of the popular heartburn medicine Zantac and the blood pressure drug Valsartan over the past few years. However, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is often slow to act on defective meds.
These are just two of many recalls involving prescription and over-the-counter medications that affect clients yearly in the United States. Drug manufacturers are often obligated to test their products for their safety.
Harmed by Medications
In addition, they must review reports by patients who claim that they have been harmed by meds and suffered from prescription drug injuries.
Manufacturers who follow the law will often pull products from the marketplace if they have received numerous reports from patients who have suffered similar harm. Additionally, serious side effects should cause a medication maker to initiate more testing and investigation, often leading to a complete recall.
However, drug manufacturers do not always do the right thing to protect customers who put their lives in the hands of the pharmaceutical company.

What You Need to Prove to Win a Defective Medication Lawsuit Against Drug Manufacturers
A defective medicine lawsuit is like any other product liability case. First, you need to establish that there was a defect that made the medication unreasonably dangerous.
In general, there are three different ways to prove that a drug is defective:
- A design defect in the medicine caused side effects or drug-related injuries
- A manufacturing defect made it dangerous
- A marketing defect failed to warn users of severe side effects
In all injury cases, it is not enough to show a defect. You must prove that the medicine was unreasonably dangerous to your well-being. After this, you must show that dangerous pharmaceutical drugs were the cause of your dangerous drug injuries.

What to Do When Filing a Dangerous Medication Recall Lawsuit
If you have recently learned that you have taken a pharmaceutical product that has been recalled, you should do the following:
- Continue to monitor your medical condition regularly, even if you do not feel any symptoms or notice adverse reactions.
- If you feel any unexpected side effects, see a doctor immediately and begin documenting the issue with your medical records.
- Keep track of any damages or expenses related to your dangerous drug injuries.
A defective drug attorney can file your lawsuit if your complaint is submitted to the court within the applicable statute of limitations. Unfortunately, many people do not know how long they have to file a lawsuit.
