Celexa warning!

Does ‘craniosynostosis’ mean anything to you? Obviously no; after all you are not an affected party.

I don’t want to scare but I will let you in with some details. Babies born with ‘craniosynostosis’ are said to have deformed skull. I think that is enough. This occurrence though rare naturally, of late, such cases are reported widely in the medico legal circle.

Product liability lawyers are widely advertising their service to those who are contemplating to file Celexa lawsuit by which women who delivered babies with birth defects after taking Celexa, an anti-depressant.

The birth defects apart from skull defect are pertaining to heart, lungs, abdominal wall defects, club foot (one or both feet turn downward and inward), and complete or partial closure of the anus.

Gruesome-aren’t they?

Anti-depressants that cause these harmful side effects include Celexa, Effexor, Lexapro, Pristiq, Prozac and Zoloft.

What legal action can victims of Actos take?

The moment one is diagnosed as having diabetes, it implies with any ambiguity, a door has been wide opened to allow all possible diseases to enter. Yes, it is that much complex diabetes is.

Neither a diabetic patient nor the diabetalogist that treats him can say with conviction, “I know all about diabetes”. If it is refuted, how else an approved diabetes medicine such as Actos can bring about damage to the bladder?

I gained valuable insights from an actos law firm about how an approved medicine still causes harmful side effects, what should have been the warnings from the manufacturers of any medicine and what legal action can victims of medicines such as Actos take etc.

It is advisable to contact Watts Guerra Craft LLP if your bladder is seriously damaged to the extent of cancer after taking Actos for a long duration.

Actos, a diabetic medicine causes side effects.

Living with a diabetic husband is demanding at times. Cooking for two different stomach-isn’t that demanding?

In addition, periodic argument about ineffective oral medicines such as Actos or talks Actos lawsuit always resulted in sour mood.

Oh, I should tell you a little bit about Actos, an oral medicine given to patients of diabetes. As some of them have been hospitalized due to irregular heartbeat, some cases here and there were reported with tumor in their bladder.

Further investigations regarding the causes led to Actos unfortunately. With valiant effort, the Government has ordered withdrawal of Actos from the market immediately.

Nevertheless, the damage has already been done substantially and cases of Actos lawsuit have started appearing in newspapers.

Please contact O'Hanlon, McCollom & Demerath, the Actos attorneys, if you happen to know of anyone who is a victim of Actos.

Don’t do this when you are pregnant.

In spite of my repeated advice however annoying it might have been, an ex-student of mine could not desist herself from seeing horror and thriller movies when she was carrying her first child. Somewhere along, she started acting strangely that was later diagnosed as panic disorder.

It is a mental status where the affected person lives in constant anticipation of bad things. She was treated with mild tension appeasers and a little bit of religious counseling and she became alright quickly.

I heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she was not given Zoloft, a medicine to treat panic disorder. This drug when taken prenatally was said to cause birth defects and lead to a Zoloft lawsuit

There are several Zoloft lawsuits already filed and the most successful personal injury lawyers O’Hanlon, McCollom & Demerath, are lending their expertise to the victims of Zoloft.

Don’t ignore justified legal claims.

A nondescript news headline almost escaped my attention but somehow I remembered the keyword Accuntane Lawsuit to dig the news again to update my knowledge about cystic acne treatment.

In that news capsule, I was disturbed to read that in some cases, the Accutane prescribed by doctors further worsened the acne which ended up in harmful side effects.

We all know that side effects caused by oral medications usually subside when we complete the dosage. However, there are always exceptions.

Such exceptions should be responsibly informed by the manufacturers of medicines to the prescribing doctors. If they fail to do so, a victim can approach a personal injury lawyer and seek his assistance to claim monetary benefits.

If you or your friends require legal advice on such cases, you can contact O’Hanlon, McCollom & Demerath – Personal Injury Lawyers – 808 West Avenue, Austin, TX. 78701. Phone: 512-494-9949
