As medical science advances, more drugs are being formulated and sold, to cure or manage disease/pain/physical and mental conditions, etc. All governments mandate that proper testing and clinical trials must be carried out before drugs are introduced into the market. However, it’s a sad fact that many irresponsible and unethical drug companies fail to comply with these regulations, leading to injuries or even death due to dangerous side-effects. If you or a loved one has suffered injuries due to dangerous drugs, contact a Burnstown personal injury lawyer with experience, expertise and knowledge of dealing with such cases. The injured are entitled to compensation from those responsible for injuries caused by dangerous drugs.
Pharmaceutical companies sometimes cut corners, conduct tests in a hurried and slip-shod manner or fail to inform consumers about the potential risks of taking such drugs. The high level of competition between drug companies also leads to negligence and errors in testing. Our top Toronto personal injury lawyers can evaluate your case and advise you about filing a personal injury claim against those responsible for your injuries.
Why Drug Accidents Happen
The multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical industry is constantly conducting research and investing in new formulations. Every company wants to race ahead of its competitors and often puts drugs into the market without adequate testing and trials. Over-the-counter and prescription drugs, herbal preparations, health supplements etc can cause a range of side-effects which may be temporary, permanent, life-threatening or fatal.
Consumers trust the prescribing physicians and certain reputed drug companies. Some drugs are prescribed without warning patients about the potential side-effects and sometimes the physician maybe unaware of them too. Injuries, disabilities, disfigurement or wrongful death may result from dangerous drugs. Kidney/liver failure, heart-attacks, strokes, paralysis, loss of vision or other function etc are some of the potential hazards of dangerous drugs.
