Victoza Lawsuit Lawyer DC, MD, VA
If you or someone you love has suffered from some of the dangerous side effects of the diabetes medication, Victoza, it may be in your best interest to discuss your situation with a Victoza lawsuit lawyer in DC, MD, or VA. This type 2 diabetes drug has been linked to devastating cases of pancreatitis, and pancreatic and thyroid cancers. These potentially life-threatening side effects were not originally included on the drug’s manufacturer, Novo Nlordisk’s warning label. Consumers and the public at large were only made aware of these side effects from the effort of researchers and through drug safety communications.
Parties that have wronged others should be held accountable for their wrongdoings. A good way to do this is with the help of a DC, MD or VA Victoza lawsuit lawyer. People who are sick, taking care of a sick loved one, or people who are grieving over the tragic and untimely death of a loved one, should not have to suffer financially because of another party’s negligence.
Product Liability
Manufacturers and other parties that allow potentially harmful drugs with insufficient warning information to be made available to doctors to prescribe to innocent patients, should be held responsible for the harm and suffering they have caused patients of their drug(s) as well as the patients’ families. This can usually be done through a product liability, personal injury lawsuit.
When there are numerous victims of the same or similar drugs, it oftentimes leads to a class action lawsuit where a group of plaintiffs are represented by the same lawyer or group of lawyers, in one action against the allegedly negligent party (or parties) that made the drug available to consumers.
If you are currently taking Victoza you should get medical advice immediately. If you are taking it now or took it in the past, a DC, MD or VA lawsuit lawyer may be able to help protect you and your rights.
Incretin Mimetics
