Woman Files Xarelto Lawsuit Alleging Life-Threatening Bleeding Incidents From Drug

March 29, 2016 – – BloodThinnerHelp.com reports on a lawsuit that has been added to MDL No. 2592 in Eastern Louisiana in February. The plaintiff alleges that after taking Xarelto, manufactured by Bayer AG and Johnson & Johnson, from January 2014 to February 2014, she suffered serious bleeding incidents that she claims were a direct result of the drug. The suit contains 12 actions against the manufacturers including allegations that the companies failed to adequately warn patients about possible side effects and the fact that when the drug was released to the market there was no reversal agent. An antidote still has not been approved.

The drug was first introduced to the U.S. in 2011 and has been the subject of thousands of lawsuits since. Common injuries that plaintiffs pursuing legal action have alleged include gastrointestinal bleeding, brain hemorrhages, internal bleeding, rectal bleeding, pulmonary embolisms (blood clots in the lung), epidural hematoma, stroke, and heart attacks. Those cases filed federally have been consolidated in a multidistrict litigation panel in New Orleans, Louisiana and those filed in the commonwealth of Pennsylvania have been assigned to a mass tort program that has now reached 620 cases. This allows lawyers to focus on the organization of cases, and discovery in preparation for initial trials and settlement talks.

Bellwether trials for these cases have been scheduled for February 2017.

As plaintiffs await their day in court, Attorney Joseph Osborne is working to help ensure that anyone who has taken Xarelto and has also experienced negative side effects that they attribute to the drug will be given the opportunity to thoroughly investigate their legal rights. These people could be entitled to significant compensation. Osborne is offering complimentary legal consultations to affected parties at this time.
