FEN PHEN DIET DRUG LITIGATION

Which diet drugs put you at risk? Jacksonville Florida diet drug lawyer and personal injury Parks and Associates represent persons nationwide who have ingested the allegedly defective diet drugs fenfluramine (PONDIMIN) and/or dexfenfluramine (REDUX), either individually or in combination with phentermine (sold under a variety of different names). Sometimes these products are referred to as Fen Phen or Fin.

Is there still time to file a claim? Whereas personal injury lawyer Parks and Associates have finished numerous first round opt-out cases through out Florida and the east coast of the United States, there are second round opt-out optortunities for people who took the drug. These drugs were originally manufactured by a company named American Home Products which has changed its name to Wyeth Pharmaceuticals. Scott Parks and Associates has had good success litigating with Wyeth.

An exam is recommended. Various U.S. government health organizations, joined by private health advocacy groups, recommend that anyone who has taken fen phen or fenfluramine or dexfenfluramine for any period of time, either alone or with another drug or drugs, should see their doctor for a medical history and physical examination to determine whether there are signs or symptoms of heart or lung disease.

If you have taken fen phen, fenfluramine or dexfenfluramine, a diet drug lawyer at Parks and Associates will be happy to speak with you regarding your potential personal injury lawsuit.
