Fleet Phospho-soda defects have sparked product defect injury claims across the country.  Along with other over-the-counter Phosphosoda, Fleet is used by consumers and healthcare providers to prepare persons for a colonoscopy.  The product, manufactured by C.B. Fleet Company, works by clearing the bowels and lower intestine.  The problem with Fleet Phospho-soda and Fleet EZ-Prep is that it is linked directly to acute phosphate nephropathy, resulting in kidney failure.  If you have taken this product and sustained serious injury, as a consumer you may have a Fleet Phospho-soda injury claim. 

Permanent kidney damage can require a serious road of intrusive and expensive future medical, including lifetime dialysis and/or kidney transplant.  Persons are able to live with just one kidney, but the damage caused by Fleet Phospho-soda is indiscriminant when it decides which kidney to harm, often resulting in injury to both kidneys.  Kidney failure can also result in death, in which case a Fleet Phospho-soda wrongful death claim may be filed by the surviving family members of the victim.

Large manufacturers have a duty of care that requires them to warn of potentially life-threatening side effects associated with the use of their product.  When they fail to warn of these dangers, the company is liable to all consumers harmed by the product.  Contact a Fleet Phospho-soda injury lawyer today to learn if you have standing to file a Fleet product defect claim.
