Thousands of people take prescription or over-the-counter drugs every day. Because of this, pharmaceutical companies have a legal and ethical obligation to develop, manufacture, and market safe drugs. However, only after a drug has contributed to a significant amount of injuries or deaths will the FDA recall the medication.  When a person suffers an injury or serious side effect as the result of taking a defective or dangerous drug, the pharmaceutical company may be held liable for damages. If you are suffering from serious side effects or complications due to a dangerous drug, you may be entitled to damages for your pain, suffering, medical costs, psychological distress, decreased quality of life, lost wages, future financial hardship, and more.
