Drugs

Although drugs can improve medical conditions and enhance quality of life, they do carry their own health risks. Drug manufacturers must properly research medications and adhere to the FDA approval process. Most importantly, drug manufacturers must fully disclose the health risks of prescription drugs to patients and health care providers.

Pharmaceutical drugs may be harmful or dangerous if drug manufacturers do not responsibly manage their drug products, including failing to:

  • thoroughly study the product both pre- and post-FDA approval
  • properly analyze research and study results
  • monitor, report and analyze adverse events and drug reactions
  • appropriately market the product and follow regulations
  • properly educate health care providers and patients about benefits and risks of the product

Motley Rice represents individuals harmed by drugs in claims against drug manufacturers, which typically fall into the following categories:

  • Strict liability claims focus on the drug and whether it has a defect that makes it unreasonably unsafe.
  • Negligence claims are based on whether the manufacturer has acted with reasonable care in developing, manufacturing and marketing the drug or product.
