Pharmaceutical product liability claims can be pursued one of three ways:
- Defectively manufactured pharmaceuticals. These claims cover injuries caused by improperly manufactured or contaminated pharmaceutical products.
- Dangerous side effects. These claims cover pharmaceuticals that come with dangerous side effects that can cause serious injuries.
- Pharmaceuticals with defective marketing. These claims cover the literature that typically accompanies pharmaceutical products, such as the warning labels and instructions.
If you have been seriously injured by a defective pharmaceutical product, contact Burg Simpson and talk to a Phoenix product liability attorney by calling 602-777-7000.
When pursuing a pharmaceutical product liability case, there are a number of potential defendants to consider, such as:
- Manufacturer. Pharmaceutical manufacturers are huge corporations with deep pockets and teams of lawyers on call to get your claim dismissed.
- Testing lab. No pharmaceutical product makes it to market with undergoing rigorous testing, often conducted by independent laboratories.
- Pharmaceutical sales representatives. Pharmaceutical sales representatives can be held responsible – at least in part – for drug recommendations that result in injuries.
- Doctor. Physicians can be held liable for failure to warn about deadly side effects.
- Hospital/clinic. The medical facilities where the drugs were prescribed can also be included in a claim.
- Pharmacy. A pharmacist’s advice concerning a defective pharmaceutical product can make them partially responsible for your injury.
