Pradaxa Update, Jonathan Perkins Injury Lawyers Reports

(LegalLaw247.com, December 05, 2012 ) HARTFORD, CT – The FDA recently made the announcement that Pradaxa users did not find a higher risk of bleeding when compared to the use of a similar drug, warfarin. This announcement, however, has been met with much criticism, as the FDA failed to state that the warfarin includes a reversal agent to handle a situation where a bleeding emergency is occurring. Pradaxa, on the other hand, does not include an antidote which would be crucial for anticlotting and thus inhibiting severe and possibly fatal bleeds.

Currently, over 100 lawsuits have been filed in regard to the adverse effects after use of the drug Pradaxa. Pradaxa works by inhibiting a clotting enzyme in the patient’s bloodstream. In some cases, blocking this protein works to the detriment of the patient. If the patient who has been using Pradaxa suffers from a serious or traumatic bleeding accident, their blood can fail to clot, resulting in gastro-intestinal bleeds. Internal bleeding usually requires the patient to be hospitalized at the very least and sometimes can lead to the patient bleeding to death.

If you or someone you love has suffered from internal bleeding after taking Pradaxa, you may be entitled to compensation for the losses in which you have endured. From medical expenses to lost wages, and any other costs associated with the damages after taking Pradaxa, individuals across the nation are beginning to file lawsuits to seek justice.
