Hire an Avandia Attorney

An Avandia lawsuit is a legal option for people who have suffered injuries as a result of taking the drug. Avandia is a prescription drug developed by pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline to treat Type 2 or adult onset diabetes. This prescription medication was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in May 1999.

Do You Have a Case?

An attorney specializing in Avandia lawsuits can win settlements for affected patients by proving that a patient's injuries were caused by taking Avandia and that GlaxoSmithKline knew about the severe Avandia side effects and failed to disclose them to the FDA and the general public.

Injuries from Taking Avandia

Avandia patients who develop one (or more) of the following conditions may have a viable legal claim and are entitled to compensation for their injuries:

• Congestive heart failure
• Heart attack
• Liver toxicity
• Severe allergic reaction
• Stroke

Death from Taking Avandia

In the event that a patient has died due to Avandia complications, loved ones are entitled to monetary settlements for their loss. In these cases, it is better to file individually rather than join a class action lawsuit.

How an Attorney Can Help

An experienced lawyer is able to win larger settlements since they are able to find credible experts to prove a patient's case, can effectively negotiate with corporate lawyers for GlaxoSmithKline, and have researched similar cases so that they are more likely to obtain adequate compensation for the patient's injuries.

Consult a Lawyer

If you or a loved one has been harmed by Avandia, you should contact an Avandia attorney to find out whether you are eligible for compensation for your injuries.
