Medical Malpractice Lawyers Discuss Cases Involving Dangerous Pharmaceutical Products

Drugs and medicines are often the center of product liability suits. Manufacturers of these products must be the appropriate test drugs and medicines before releasing them into the market. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has set standards for drug testing. These criteria are considered standard, but the fact that the drug was properly licensed FDA has no effect on the manufacturer's warranty to the plaintiff's injury if the product proves to be otherwise defective.

As with almost all drugs, except over-the-counter drugs, there will usually be "learned intermediary" between manufacturer and ultimate user agents. This may be the prescribing physician, a nurse who instructs the patient or the pharmacist who fills the prescription. Often the lines of responsibility are unclear, and an experienced products liability attorney can help the plaintiff determine who may be at fault for the injury.

Some products are considered "unavoidably unsafe" products, meaning they can not be completely safe no matter how well they are produced. Such drugs can have potentially harmful side effects, but may be beneficial to the user anyway. If such drugs are properly prepared and accompanied by adequate warnings, they usually can not form the basis for successful products liability lawsuit. Drugs manufacturer has a duty to warn of adverse drug when such effects in the light, but is not expected to warn of unknown dangers.

Often the manufacturer discharges this duty by providing the necessary information to the prescribing physician to patient or pharmacist. The drug manufacturer is considered an expert in his field, and as such it has a continuing duty to keep abreast with knowledge of its products and take all reasonable steps to update medical professionals on the potential harmful effects. There is no duty to warn of possible reactions in unusually susceptible consumers, however, but just because a reaction is rare does not mean that the manufacturer has no duty to warn about it or to persons experiencing the reaction are unusually susceptible.

In some drug-related injury cases the plaintiff will not be able to identify the precise manufacturer or supplier of the defective product because so much time has elapsed that the evidence is no longer available, such as in cases drugs taken during pregnancy. In those cases, injuries and damage is not apparent until the children reach maturity.

In such cases, various theories may be available to shift the burden on potential defendants to prove that they had not received the drug in question, or to allocate damages among a number of potentially responsible producers. The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act was established in 1986 to provide a remedy to individuals who have been injured because of mandatory vaccination of children. The law provides no-fault administrative compensation instead of suing vaccine manufacturers when certain vaccines cause injury or death.

Creditors will have to seek compensation through the federal program before pursuing a lawsuit. If the claimant rejects awards or unsuccessful, then legal action may be filed, but Certain restrictions may apply. Lawyers have a duty to inform their clients who seek them for such injuries to the possibility of recovery under the Act.

Plaintiffs who have legitimate claims for damages they suffered because of defects using pharmaceutical products should contact their lawyers as soon as they are aware of the resulting injury to avoid the possibility of time to bring the matter expires. If a claim can be proven the plaintiffs entitled to money damages to compensate them for their losses.

In some cases, the courts will even provide punitive damages to punish a defendant committed a particularly indifferent to the safety of users of the product, although some jurisdictions have abolished punitive damages against the manufacturers of the drug if the drug in question was manufactured and labeled in accordance with the terms of the consent or permission issued by the Federal Food and Drug Administration.

On the other hand, product liability defense attorneys defending manufacturers against unsubstantiated claims and to facilitate the quickest possible resolution of the matter.
