Pharmaceutical Litigation Attorney Practicing Nationwide and Licensed in Maryland, Washington, D.C. and Florida
Dangerous Prescription Drugs and Defective Medical Devices
The daily news is full of instances in which corporate greed has resulted in grave complications and death when dangerous drugs and medical devices are brought to market without adequate testing — or with knowledge of deadly side effects.
If you trusted your doctors and suffered serious personal injury, or a loved one died from these unsafe medical products, the Law Office of Susan R. Green is prepared to lead the charge for justice. Our accomplished trial lawyer can play hardball with the giant pharmaceutical companies and manufacturers of medical electronics. We have obtained settlements and verdicts in individual claims and cooperated with the largest U.S. law firms in class action lawsuits.
Contact our Towson, Maryland, office immediately if you have health problems relating to any of the following, or if there has been a product recall since you used them:
- Medtronic defibrillator lead — a faulty lead wire in this implanted device may administer painful shocks at the wrong time and dangerously disrupt heart rhythm
- Guidant pacemakers and defibrillators — battery failure and other defects in certain models have led to recalls and health advisories
- Accutane — side effects of this potent acne prescription include birth defects, depression and suicidal thoughts
- Bextra — this popular arthritis treatment has been linked to heart attack, stroke and Stevens-Johnson syndrome
- Kugel mesh patch — used in hernia repair, the internal coil spring can break and cause ruptures
- Ortho Evra — the elevated estrogen levels in this birth control medication can lead to blood clots and strokes
- ReNu MoistureLoc contact solution — linked to infections causing blindness or permanent vision impairment
- Paxil — a widely prescribed anti-depressant that can cause violent tendencies
- Viagra — erectile dysfunction medication has caused blindness in some patients
These are just a few of the many dangerous drugs and medical devices tracked by the Law Office of Susan R. Green. We are always vigilant for new threats to public safety, and have handled a wide range of cases involving lesser-known pharmaceuticals and medical products and devices no longer on the market.
Dangerous Drug and Medical Device Litigation
Manufacturers are liable for personal injury or wrongful death resulting from the intended use of their products. To prevail in this complex litigation, an individual or class of plaintiffs must demonstrate that the manufacturer:
- Knowingly covered up health risks
- Intentionally fudged statistics or fabricated research
- Failed to adequately warn physicians and the public of side effects
- Failed to test products to industry standards
