Plavix Attorneys

Plavix is a prescription heart medication used to help prevent blood clots. Plavix has recently been found to cause severe gastrointestinal bleeding in patients with a history of peptic ulcer disease (PUD). A study showed that 22 percent of patients who took Plavix together with aspirin and who had a previous history of PUD, experienced fatal bleeding. The manufacturer, Bristol-Myers and Sanofi-Aventis, failed to mention the huge risk of Plavix in the drug’s initial 2002 warning label.

Bristol-Myers and Sanofi-Aventis are required to provide patients and doctors of the warnings and safety information on Plavix. Sadly, most pharmaceutical companies sometimes delay or completely withhold such information, especially when it might threaten their profits. These companies can be held liable for injuries suffered by patients who took the drug and suffered from these severe side effects.

A qualified Plavix attorney can evaluate your claim and determine your eligibility to pursue legal action. A Plavix attorney can then litigate your case against Bristol-Myers and Sanofi-Aventis, who are responsible for Plavix. A Plavix attorney can help recover damages including: past and future medical expenses, lost wages and earning capacity, pain and suffering, and more.
