Do I have an Avandia Claim Against GlaxoSmithKline?

Do I have an Avandia Claim Against GlaxoSmithKline? Maybe.  The Avandia trials start in June 2010 in Federal Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.  Persons prescribed the drug Avandia suffer from Type 2 diabetes.  The goal of Avandia was to control blood sugar levels in those persons who are known to have Type 2 diabetes (not other types).  The problem with Avandia is that the Federal Drug Administration has determined that use of Avandia increases your risk of heart attack by 43%.  It is also known that Avandia increases its user's risk of cardiovascular disease and death by up to 64%.  That is stagering and may likely outweight the benefits of the drug.  Use of Avandia may also cause bone fractures due to a reduction in bone density, aka osteoporosis. 

Lawyers for GlaxoSmithKline will be working hard at trial next year to minimize and/or completely bar recovery by those persons seriously injured by the use of Avandia.  Don't be left out of the litigation.  Contact an Avanda Drug Defect Lawyer immediately to see if you qualify to be a party to the Avandia Litigation and file an Avandia Injury Claim.  It is suspected that GlaxoSmithKline had notice of the dangerous side-effects and inceased risk of heart attack and stroke.  For example, in 2007 it was notified of several serious injuries, including wrongful death, which resulted from the use of the drug Avandia. 

Don't be victimized twice.  Contact the Drug Recall Injury Lawyers at Schultz Legal Group to determine whether you are entitled to money damages (compensation) for your injuries.
