Xarelto Lawsuit Bleeding Allegations Point To Internal Injuries

October 28, 2015 – – BloodThinnerHelp.com reports on the most common personal injuries allegedly connected with use of blood thinning drug, Xarelto. Xarelto is considered to be a dangerous blood thinner because of its lack of antidote. It comes with two “black box” warnings from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Black box warnings are the most strict warnings the FDA is able to provide before ordering a recall of the drug.

According to information from multiple lawsuits, individuals allege that Xarelto use has caused them unmanageable internal bleeding from injuries. The most common injuries allegedly connected to Xarelto are: abdominal bleeds, brain bleeds, pulmonary embolism (where blood flow to the lungs is blocked by a blood clot), and liver dysfunction. Lawsuit complaints note that although Xarelto is an anti-clotting drug, if use of it is abruptly discontinued, or if a patient using it decides to switch to another blood thinner, the patient is at significant risk for blood clots.

According to the JAMA Internal Medicine Journal, Xarelto can lead to liver dysfunction or hepatitis. The FDA has additionally supported this connection by warning about this specific Xarelto danger.

Additionally, it has been warned that Xarelto poses serious risks when combined with certain other drugs. The FDA has noted that individuals using certain drugs are not to combine them with Xarelto, because of significant health risks.

With well over 11 million prescriptions written for Xarelto across the United States, it is one of the leading anticoagulant drugs currently on the market. Those who have suffered health issues after using the drug allege that it has been marketed with negligence. They complain that the manufacturers did not properly warn consumers about the dangers allegedly associated with the drug.
