Defective Pharmaceuticals in Norfolk/Portsmouth, Virginia

Defective pharmaceuticals are responsible for causing serious harm and even death to thousands of trusting American consumers every day in the United States. With sales totaling hundreds of billions of dollars annually, recalled drugs are still in the news daily, because callous pharmaceutical executives make the decision to release a drug to the public knowing dangerous side effects exist. Taking a medication prescribed by your doctor should not be a life-threatening occurrence.

Pharmaceutical manufacturers routinely ignore the safety of consumers in a mad dash to get new drugs on the shelves while being guilty of inadequate testing and quality control procedures. A defective drug can cause heart attacks, kidney and liver damage, stroke and birth defects.

In the recent past drugs for arthritis pain, cholesterol lowering medications, oral contraceptives, diet drugs, anti-depressants and vaccines have been on the dangerous drugs list along with hundreds, if not thousands of others.

Defective drugs cause enormous pain and suffering for many and have been responsible for lawsuits and awards for damages in the hundreds of millions of dollars.

If you have been the victim of a defective drug, please contact the Portsmouth, Virginia office of The Cochran Firm today for a confidential evaluation of your case, at no cost to you, to take the first step towards justice and the financial compensation you deserve.
