Xarelto Blood Thinner Lawsuit: A Comprehensive Characterization
https://www.medlegal360.com/xarelto-blood-thinner-lawsuit/
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the
anticoagulant or blood thinner Xarelto (generic name rivaroxaban) to treat deep
vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism as well as lower the risk of stroke and
blood clots in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (irregular
heartbeat) or those who have recently undergone knee or hip replacement
surgery.
Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc manufactured Xarelto. This large
pharmaceutical company also produces several well-known medications, including Elmiron, Invokana, Risperdal, and Stelara.
The side effects of Xarelto can vary greatly. These detrimental
outcomes might only persist for a few days or weeks. If the adverse effects
persist, annoy you, or become severe, talk to your doctor or physician. Serious
or fatal bleeding, clots after stopping Xarelto, and serious or fatal bleeding
are some of the serious Xarelto side effects. Blood clot in the lumbar or
epidural area, allergic reaction.
The majority of the Xarelto
blood thinner lawsuit claimed that the three defendants - Johnson
& Johnson, Janssen Pharmaceutical, and Bayer Corporation - marketed
the drug, knowing it had fatal side effects. They neglected to inform patients
that there was no cure, in addition to failing to inform them of these harmful
side effects. If they had known there was no antidote, many patients would not
have taken Xarelto. Someone must always have an antidote to their anticoagulant
on hand in case excessive bleeding occurs. There was nothing the emergency room
could have done for these patients, even if they had gone there.
When a federal court determines that a sufficient number of people
have a case against one or more defendants, a multidistrict litigation (MDL)
replaces personal
injury lawsuits. It also become the target of thousands of product
liability claims and wrongful
death claims.
The victims might be able to receive compensations for the lost
work time if the plaintiffs had been out of work for weeks or months.
Plaintiffs who become permanently disabled due to taking Xarelto may also seek compensation for lost
future earnings and also Patients who survived their injuries would be entitled
to pain and
suffering compensation.
Before filing a case, you need to know about the importance of medical
records. It assists your attorney in examining your complete medical
history and lets him know how Xarelto's side effects harmed you or your loved
one and also there is a statute of limitations, or time period, to join the class
action lawsuit against Xarelto.
