Dangerous and Defective Drug Attorneys
Illinois Drug Recall Lawsuit Lawyers
Prescription drugs can be dangerous even when they are prescribed and administered correctly. Over-the-counter medications can cause harm when they are taken according to the package directions.
When the Problem Is the Drug Itself
Drugs that are defective, contaminated, or mislabeled, and those that involve extremely dangerous side effects, can cause injuries and fatalities. Those who have been injured have a right to recover financial compensation for the full extent of their damages.
The attorneys of Walsh, Knippen & Cetina, Chartered, represent clients who have been injured because of medications that were defective, contaminated, mislabeled or otherwise dangerous. We also represent survivors of those who died a wrongful death.

Serious Consequences From Dangerous Drugs
Heparin, for example, is an anticoagulant that was recalled by the FDA because it was found to be contaminated by a bacterium that could cause a fatal infection. It caused injuries and deaths in several states, including Illinois.
The osteoporosis drug Fosamax can cause the jaw bone to decay and die. Paxil and Chantix have been linked to suicide. The list goes on and on.
