Xarelto Lawsuit Plaintiff Alleges Anticoagulant Caused Her Sudden Internal Bleeding Episode

April 06, 2016 – – BloodThinnerHelp.com reports on the details of a Xarelto-related lawsuit which was filed against Janssen Pharmaceuticals and Bayer AG in the Eastern District of New York. The complaint was filed by a female plaintiff from Texas who claims that the anticoagulant drug’s manufacturers Janssen and Bayer neglected to properly warn consumers about possible dangerous side effects connected to their drug. Her lawsuit was filed under case number 1:14-cv-04524 in a federal court.

Additional details of this lawsuit show that the plaintiff was prescribed Xarelto by her physician to treat her atrial fibrillation condition, as this heart condition can put patients at increased risk for the occurrence of strokes. The woman claims to have taken Xarelto for just 5 months when she suffered from what she states was a sudden, life-threatening internal bleeding episode. She notes that this bleed has caused long-term damage to her health, and that she will therefore require specialized care well into the future, and incur additional medical bills.

Xarelto has been on the market for five years now, after gaining approval in 2011 from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The agency has since, however, given the drug two “black box” warnings, which are the most strict warnings a product can receive before being pulled from the market for public sale. The drug is the subject of over 3,400 lawsuits today, which have been consolidated to form two main groupings: a group of over 2,800 cases was consolidated by the U.S. JPML to form MDL 2592 in Eastern Louisiana while more than 620 other cases were consolidated by the Court of Common Pleas to form a mass tort program in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Attorney Joseph Osborne understands how these mounting lawsuit allegations may be concerning to those currently taking Xarelto. He is working to assist others who have used the drug and who have also suffered from adverse events and complications that they believe the drug has caused them. Those affected could be entitled to substantial compensation attained through legal action. Attorney Osborne believes that anyone affected should be provided with the critical opportunity to investigate their legal rights fully. To better assist those interested in learning more about legal action, he is also providing free consultations for qualified individuals at this time.
