Valsartan Lawsuit Attorneys: Blood Pressure Drug Potential Cancer Risk

Are you a high blood pressure or heart patient in the U.S. who has been prescribed Valsartan? Have you experienced negative side-effects as a result? If so, you need to contact a U.S. attorney immediately in connection with a Valsartan recall lawsuit. The knowledgeable lawyers at Carabin Shaw are ready to fight on your behalf for any pain and suffering you may have experienced as a result of this prescribed medication.

In the summer of 2018, European agencies issued a recall of various batches of Valsartan when researchers discovered the presence of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), a known carcinogen. This action eventually led the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to issue a voluntary recall of the drug.

The following month, the FDA reported the presence of a second carcinogenic impurity, N-nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA). Additional studies indicated the contamination may have been present since 2012.

Because of the Valsartan recall by the FDA, attorneys across the U.S. are filing lawsuits against the manufacturer of the drug. The Valsartan lawsuit in the USA will be a joint effort to hold the manufacturer of the dangerous drug accountable for putting the lives of patients at risk and causing both physical and emotional distress.

U.S. product liability lawyers aim to speak with patients who used Valsartan for a minimum of six months to a year, from 2014 to the present. The reason for this is there is a potential issue of Valsartan-related cancer not appearing immediately.

U.S. attorneys are developing cases against the drug manufacturer and are prepared to speak with anyone who may have been exposed to or experienced Valsartan problems. The Valsartan recall in the USA is a clear indication there is a problem with the drug, and the pharmaceutical company will already be preparing their defense, relying on their staff attorneys to protect their interests.

This may seem like an overwhelming prospect to many people, but the U.S. product liability lawyers involved in these lawsuits are prepared to work hard on behalf of those injured by Valsartan to make sure their rights are protected.

At Carabin Shaw, our U.S. attorneys have been defending patients’ rights for decades. We understand what it’s like to deal with large companies who have released defective products to the public. We believe anyone who has been injured as the result of a large drug company’s negligence should be compensated.
