Los Angeles – June 24, 2019 /MarketersMedia/ —
The dangerous drug attorneys of Nadrich & Cohen are actively investigating Uloric Side Effect claims for patients who used the widely-prescribed medication and subsequently suffered a cardiovascular event. Currently, the firm is reviewing cases where a Uloric patient suffered a heart attack, stroke, unstable angina or cardiovascular death after using the medication.
Uloric (Febuxostat) is manufactured by Takeda Pharmaceuticals and was approved by the FDA in 2009 for use in patients suffering from gout or asymptomatic hyperuricemia. The drug is used to lower the uric acid level in the patient’s blood. Unfortunately, the drug has also been associated with an increased risk for serious cardiovascular events, including death.
On February 21, 2019, the FDA updated the prescribing information for Uloric to include a Black Box Warning, which is the strictest warning the FDA places on prescription medications. The warning is reserved for medication where the FDA has concluded that its usage has been associated with a serious side effect or health hazard.
Founding partner, Jeffrey Nadrich, notes that “we are pursuing claims against the drug manufacturer for failure to adequately warn patients of an increased risk for cardiovascular events associated with Uloric use.” FDA approval for the drug was denied twice before being approved on the third application for approval. As a condition of approval, the FDA required that Takeda conduct further testing to fully evaluate the potential for increased cardiovascular risk among Uloric patients.
