Pharmaceutical Liability From New Drugs With Bad Track Records
As drug companies are marketing sexy and flashier pharmaceuticals, pushing less stylish, but significantly more effective drugs to the way side, could there be a rise in new cases of pharmaceutical liability?
As personal injury lawyers in San Diego, we believe that when a less effective drug is prescribed by doctors for medical treatment, it can actually worsen a patient’s personal injuries, add to their pain and suffering, and potentially cause unnecessary wrongful deaths.
Usually a doctor will prescribe you a tried and true medication for your personal injuries, but more and more people are asking for less effective remedies that they see advertised on television or in sleek magazine ads.Â
Physicians continue to believe that they are immune to the influence of drug companies, despite strong evidence to the contrary. Studies have shown that doctors with ties to industry are more likely to prescribe a brand-name drug over a cheaper generic version than doctors without such ties and that could cause pharmaceutical medical malpractice.
Just because a drug is more stylized in the marketing does not mean that it will help heal your personal injuries better.  In fact, the opposite could be true in that they might potentially cause pharmaceutical liability.Â
Our firm’s San Diego personal injury attorneys believe that drugs that are cost-efficient and effective for improving illnesses should be used instead of the flashier medications that could possibly end up as a case of pharmacuetical malpractice.
