Drug Recalls

New Jersey Drug Recall Attorneys

Protecting Pharmaceutical Injury Victims throughout New Jersey

According to recent estimates, Americans are now prescribed more pharmaceutical products than ever before. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) conducted a study which reflects that nearly 50% of people living in the United States took at least one prescription drug in the last month. As the prevalence of prescription drugs continues to skyrocket, the prescription drug industry expands in conjunction, generating more than $280 billion each year in the United States alone. Because this is such a lucrative business, prescription drug manufacturers are often reluctant to pull a product off the market, even after it has been linked to significant health hazards. They also fail to adequately test, label, and warn patients of the potential harm that their products may cause with alarming frequency.

When pharmaceutical giants prioritize their profit margins at the expense of the health and safety of the American public, they can be held accountable through product liability lawsuits. At Fronzuto Law Group, our attorneys are armed with the necessary tools to fight back against this industry. Our attorneys leverage over 75 years of combined experience and extensive knowledge of product liability law to obtain maximum compensation for clients who have been seriously harmed by defective drugs and medical devices.

Medical Conditions Caused by Defective Pharmaceutical Products

Defective or dangerous drugs can have life-changing effects on adults and children alike, often causing serious injuries or even wrongful death. For example, the antidepressant Zoloft, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), has been linked to birth defects. On the other hand, the acne medication Accutane was recalled due to numerous instances of patients developing serious bowel diseases. Some of the most common health complications caused by defective drugs include:

  • Birth Defects
  • Heart Attacks
  • Strokes
  • Blood Clots
  • Certain types of Cancer
  • Cerebral Hemorrhages
