Prescription drugs are supposed to help you – they are supposed to improve your health, protect you from disease, and make your life better and longer. But in some cases, prescription drugs can be dangerous and even deadly – the drugs that were supposed to help you can have serious side effects, cause irreversible medical problems, and results in death. While the US Food & Drug Administration regulates the drug industry and attempts to keep defective drugs off the market, dozens of prescription drug recalls each year show that federal drug regulations don’t always prevent bad drugs from getting on the market and into your medicine cabinet.
Unfortunately, drug companies are often after profit more than the safety of others. They may release a drug without fully testing its side effects or make a mistake during the manufacturing process that renders their drugs dangerous. In other cases, a drug company may market a drug for a purpose other than the one it was approved for, putting patients in danger.
In addition to defective prescription drugs, over-the-counter drugs and pharmacy products can also cause harm – just this month a number of children’s liquid Tylenol products were recalled after the FDA found the company who made the drugs was not following regulations at one of its drug manufacturing plants.
If you or a loved one has been harmed by a defective prescription drug or by a defective over-the-counter drug, you should talk to a knowledgeable Texas product liability attorney immediately. Not only is it important to recover compensation for your losses, it is also important to make sure that no one else is injured by the same drug in the future.
