What Is a Dangerous Drug Lawsuit, and Do I Have a Claim?

Dangerous, defective drugs fall under product liability law. In Louisiana, a pharmaceutical company can be held liable for injuries caused by a defective drug under certain conditions. 

You likely have a strong product liability claim if the drug is inherently defective in design. This means that its use leads to harm despite your using it as intended and following all safety precautions. FDA inspections will typically catch design defects before a drug is allowed to be distributed, but some defects have historically slipped through. 

Pharmaceutical companies are also required to adequately warn consumers about the risks of using a drug. This includes instructions for safe and proper use, possible interactions with other drugs, and other inherent risks of using the drug, including potential side effects. If you experience one or more dangerous side effects or develop a condition that is not described in the pharmaceutical company’s warnings, you likely have a case.

Not sure if you have a strong claim? You do not have to go it alone. Our Baton Rouge dangerous drug attorneys can assess your circumstances and help you explore your legal options.
