Quinine Attorneys

Entering into a Pharmaceutical Litigation Case

It is a frightening reality, but every year there are new medications that are recalled, some of which have been on the market for years. After reading the news about a drug that has been recalled, you don't have to look too much further to read an article about an individual or group of consumers that received a settlement for their lawsuit against a pharmaceutical manufacturer. Claims within the pharmaceutical industry are growing at a rapid state, but so are the medical injuries of innocent consumers just simply trying to get healthier.

We live in a society that allows for these claims to be filed. And this is a hidden blessing, for it is these types of lawsuits that help keep pharmaceutical companies in check. With a little fear of having to go through a very costly lawsuit, just maybe some pharmaceuticals will think twice before putting a drug on the market or keeping a drug on the market whose effectiveness and health risks are put into question.

Quinine, although not recalled, fits into this category of problematic medications. Have you taken quinine? Do you suffer from any medical issues? These are questions to ask yourself before making the decision to file a quinine lawsuit. Entering into the legal system is not easy but can be very beneficial. If you answered all of the above questions with a yes, than you probably have a pile of medical bills on your desk. Who is liable for those bills? It just may be the manufacturer of the quinine product that you took.

Quinine is a malaria treatment; however, consumers use it for off-label usages such as treating pain from leg cramps. A quinine lawsuit enters the picture since many patients that took quinine for an off-label reason have experienced very damaging side effects to their liver or heart. There are also cases of death that have been reported. The Food and Drug Administration recognizes the effects of quinine hence, they have approved only one quinine-containing drug.
