We Are Investigating Paxil Birth Defects Side Effects - We Front All Expenses
As a Paxil Birth Defect Lawyer, I keep a watchful eye on drug recall news. Lately I have been following the cases against GlaxoSmithKline for their mistakes in the manufacture of several drugs. The prescription drug that is the focus of the court cases is for the antidepressant Paxil.
In October, court proceedings exposed that GlaxoSmithKline made a mistake while producing the medication in their Cidra, Puerto Rico plant. The federal government and several state governments have filed drug adulteration claims after the mistake was made public by a whistleblower.
According to this person, the mistakes on the production line made some of the Paxil pills extremely dangerous. Some drugs off of the line only had the inactive ingredient and some pills had only the active ingredient. A subsidiary of GSK, SB Pharmaco, pleaded guilty to the federal charges of drug adulteration. According to the U.S. Department of Justice, GSK will pay $150 million in fines for the criminal charges and $600 million in penalties on a civil level. GlaxoSmithKline also faces several civil lawsuits.
The most recent case awarded the State of Washington $6 million for their case against the drug company. The state plans to fund its Medicaid program and pay the federal government back for the state's share of prescription costs of the Medicaid program. Paxil has been surrounded by many complications, and it is important that patients should see a doctor right away. If you are taking the prescription Paxil, you should be tested to see if you are receiving the correct dosage.
