Get Started:
Plavix, a prescription heart medication used to help prevent blood clots, has been found to cause dangerous gastrointestinal bleeding in patients with a history of peptic ulcer disease (PUD). In fact, a study showed that 22 percent of patients who took Plavix together with aspirin and who had a previous history of PUD, experienced severe gastrointestinal bleeding. Worse still, the drug companies made no mention of the significant risk of this potentially fatal Plavix side effect in the drug’s initial 2002 warning label.
By law, drug manufacturers are required to provide consumers with adequate warnings and safety information on their products. Unfortunately, pharmaceutical companies sometimes delay or completely withhold such information, especially when it might threaten profits. Nevertheless, companies that fail to adequately warn consumers about dangers associated with their drugs can be held liable for injuries suffered as a result.
If you have a history of PUD and have experienced serious gastrointestinal bleeding because of Plavix, you may be eligible to seek compensation through a Plavix lawsuit.
