Jacksonville Product Liability Lawyer: Pharmaceutical Products

Americans spend millions of dollars on prescription and over the counter drugs every year. We do so assuming that these drugs have been tested, are safe for us, and will ease our health problems. Doctors also stake their reputations and their patients’ health on the efficacy of the drugs they prescribe.

Unfortunately our trust is sometimes betrayed. If a company fails to thoroughly test its product or adequately oversee its production, the end result can be long-term health problems or even death for thousands of consumers. Some estimates place the number of Americans killed by defective drugs at nearly 200,000 per year.

Preventing Defective Drugs

Jacksonville defective drug lawyer Don Guthrie is dedicated to reducing the risks for American prescription drug consumers by holding negligent corporations accountable. He is prepared to represent victims or their families in a variety of cases, including:

• Drug Recalls
• Drug Contaminations
• False Claims

If corporations learn that errors will lead to severe financial losses, they will have a strong motivation to ensure their products are as safe as they can possibly be.

The Consequences of Pharmaceutical Negligence

Pharmaceutical companies that produce damaged drugs or mislead consumers have caused serious medical, financial, and emotional problems throughout the country. Defective drugs have been linked to heart problems, impaired cognitive skills, birth defects, and kidney damage, just to name a few.

In turn, these problems have created emotional distress, impairment, and even death. It is not fair for innocent people to suffer financial loss, reduced quality of life, loss of a loved one, and other heavy burdens because of a corporation's negligence.
