Dangerous Drugs
Experienced Tulsa Legal Help Regarding Dangerous Drugs
The presence of dangerous drugs in the marketplace has become so prevalent that the general public has become more aware of what used to be an infrequent and largely invisible problem.
What caused the shift? Money and frequently, dishonesty. A “hit” drug can bring a pharmaceutical company billions of dollars in profits in just one year. And patents last for decades, often guaranteeing drug companies long-term cash cows so they can successfully launch new drugs.
To ensure that new drugs are approved, drug companies sometimes:
- Fail to conduct adequate testing
- Fail to provide the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) with full and complete information regarding test results (note: the FDA conducts no testing and relies on drug companies to provide all of the information it uses for the drug approval process)
When pharmaceutical companies fail in their responsibility to ensure drugs are safe, injuries and death can occur.
Doctors and Medical Malpractice Can Also Cause Drug Injuries.
Perfectly safe drugs can become dangerous drugs when doctors do not administer them properly. Doctors can:
- Prescribe them for off-label use
- Fail to monitor patients’ use of drugs by way of blood and liver tests
- Fail to inform patient of potential side effects
- Engage in over medication, or over prescribe certain drugs
