Vioxx, Rezulin & Other Dangerous Drugs
Pharmaceutical Negligence Attorneys in Springfield, MO
Pharmaceutical companies are able to grow and expand their businesses by developing and marketing new drugs. Since these drugs often alter or interfere with an individual’s bodily functions, they have to be thoroughly tested before they are allowed to hit the market.
Unfortunately, certain pharmaceutical products like Vioxx and Rezulin produce side effects that were not detected until they caused serious harm to innocent consumers.
If you or someone you love suffered harm after using a dangerous pharmaceutical, contact the Springfield product liability lawyers at Strong-Garner-Bauer P.C. today at (417) 855-2022.

How long do I have to file a personal injury case in Missouri?Every state has a time limit for how long you have to file a personal injury claim called the statute of limitations. In Missouri, the statute of limitations for personal injury cases is five years from the date the injury occurred or could have been reasonably discovered. If you fail to file your personal injury lawsuit before the statute of limitations expires then the defendant will most certainly file a motion to dismiss the case.

Unintended Side Effects
Testing for new pharmaceuticals typically consists of laboratory testing, during which time a drug is tested on lab mice. After observing how mice react to the drug, the scientists who produced it will either determine that it is safe for human testing or unsafe for human consumption.
If the drug is determined to be safe for human testing, then the drug will undergo human trials, and the developing scientists will observe its effects and side effects. If it is still considered safe, then it may be approved for marketing.
