Xarelto Lawsuit Plaintiff Alleges That Manufacturersâ Negligence Caused Husbandâs Death
December 17, 2015 – – BloodThinnerHelp.com reports on another lawsuit filed which details the dangerous side effects associated with anticoagulant Xarelto. This lawsuit now joins with others consolidated in MDL number 2592 by the U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation. The MDL is being overseen in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana by the Honorable Judge Eldon Fallon.
This complaint was filed by a widow in Missouri who alleges that the negligence of Janssen Research, parent company Johnson & Johnson, and Bayer Healthcare ultimately caused the wrongful death of her husband.
Court documents show that the woman’s husband was prescribed Xarelto by his primary care doctor in December of 2012. He used the drug until he was admitted to an intensive care unit in a local hospital on May 4th of 2013. Upon his admission, the hospital staff took him off of the drug, but were unable to successfully flush it from his system before he died of an intracerebral hemorrhage caused by a bleed in his brain tissue.
As many plaintiffs who have filed lawsuits against Xarelto state, if she and her husband had been better made aware of the dangers of the drug, they would have chosen a safer alternative. She also states that the defendants did not properly warn consumers or the medical community about the dangers of Xarelto’s side effects and even purposefully hid information concerning the drug’s risks from the public.
Across the nation, Xarelto lawsuits continue to be filed. In federal court, the cases have soared over 2,200, and these are joined by a mass tort group in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania of around 500 other cases. Plaintiffs involved in these cases all share similar allegations concerning the blood thinner, which, to date, has no available antidote.
Attorney Joseph Osborne is working to ensure that as these cases await trial preparations, everyone who has experienced adverse health effects after using Xarelto will have the option of looking into their legal rights. To help accomplish this, he is offering free legal consultations to involved individuals. It is believed that these people and their families may be entitled to substantial compensation.
