Chantix Death

Chantix, a Pfizer-produced smoking cessation medication, has been proven to cause a variety of moderate to severe health problems since its FDA approval in 2006. Although many people have successfully quit smoking after using Chantix, thousands of Chantix users have also endured accidents, injuries and even death after taking this drug.

Because the range of Chantix side effects is vast and serious, it's important that patients considering taking this medication discuss their complete medical history with their doctors.

Similarly, to prevent Chantix death, patients should:

Be aware of the complications associated with Chantix.
Regularly visit their doctors while taking Chantix, as doctors can monitor and detect the slight changes in health that may indicate the development of Chantix side effects.
Seek immediate medical attention if they start experiencing Chantix side effects.

Causes of Chantix Death

In some cases of Chantix death, this pill has first caused the development of a potentially fatal health problem, such as:

arrhythmias
diabetes
heart attack
seizures
renal (kidney) disorders
severe allergic reactions
Stevens-Johnson syndrome (a potentially fatal skin condition in which inflammation of the mucous membrane causes the top layer of skin to separate from lower layers of skin)

Lack of immediate treatment can cause any of the above conditions to seriously progress and result in death.

Chantix Suicide Deaths

In addition to causing fatal conditions, Chantix is also known to cause severe depression and suicidal thoughts and/ or behaviors, which may lead to suicide.

To date, 55 people have committed suicide after taking Chantix. While nearly 200 others reported to the FDA that Chantix caused them to start experiencing suicidal thoughts, over other 400 patients filed complaints that they had developed depression following Chantix use.

To prevent Chantix-related suicides, be sure to tell your doctor if you are prone to depression, bipolar disorder or psychosis before taking this medication. Similarly, if you start to notice your mood changing or you start thinking about suicide, seek immediate medical attention.

What Should You Do Following a Chantix Death?

Set up a meeting with a personal injury lawyer. Anyone who has lost a significant other or family member to a Chantix death has a legal claim and will be entitled to monetary compensation.

Keep in mind that initial consultations with most Chantix lawyers are free, as these experienced professionals want to encourage affected individuals to pursue their cases. Similarly, those who follow through with a Chantix lawsuit will likely not have to pay for legal services until their case is won, as most Chantix lawyers work on contingency.
