Quinine Lawsuit

In December 2006, the Food and Drug Administration directed the manufacture of unapproved quinine products—particularly those used for treating leg cramps—be halted. The FDA's action against the products' manufacturers was long overdue, considering the safety of quinine came into question in the 1990s. At that time, health officials became concerned about the use of quinine for treating conditions like leg cramps, largely because the risks of using quinine for such purposes far outweigh any benefits.

More than 600 serious adverse health effects and 90 deaths have been linked to the use of unapproved quinine products. Some of the potentially deadly side effects of quinine include: cardiac arrhythmia, kidney failure, overdose, thrombocytopenia, severe skin and/or hypersensitivity reactions, and adverse drug interactions.

Why File a Quinine Lawsuit?

Individuals who have suffered a severe quinine side effect may be entitled to recover compensation for their losses by filing a quinine lawsuit. Depending on the particular circumstances of the case, a person may be able to obtain reimbursement for:

Medical costs
Pain and suffering
Mental anguish
Lost wages/earning capacity
Loss of enjoyment of life

Those who have lost a loved one because of a quinine-related adverse event may be able to seek damages on their loved one's behalf.

If you or someone you love has suffered harm because of quinine use, it is crucial to consult with an experienced attorney as soon as possible to ensure your legal rights are protected. Statutes of limitations apply to all personal injury cases and restrict the time you have to file a quinine lawsuit against a product's manufacturer.

An Attorney Can Help

A qualified personal injury attorney can evaluate your case and determine your eligibility to file a quinine lawsuit. If indeed you have a case, an attorney can pursue your interests throughout the legal process. Sometimes this means negotiating a fair and just settlement with the defense, and other times it means taking your case to trial to ensure you receive the justice you deserve.
