CA Pharmaceutical Liability Attorney
Each day, millions trust the pharmaceutical industry to provide medication that improves or saves lives. But what happens when this trust is broken, and a medication causes harm? Defining Pharmaceutical Liability
Pharmaceutical liability is a complex area of law, but there are a few basic principles that apply. First, pharmaceutical companies have a duty to manufacture and distribute safe products. This means that they must conduct adequate testing and research before bringing a new product to market, and they must warn consumers of any known risks associated with the product.
Second, if a pharmaceutical company breaches its duty to manufacture and distribute safe products, it may be held liable for the injuries and deaths caused by its products. This liability can be based on a variety of legal theories, including negligence, strict liability, and breach of warranty.
There are many examples of pharmaceutical liability cases that have been brought in recent years. Some of the most common types of pharmaceutical liability claims include:
- A drug may be defective if it is not properly manufactured, if it contains dangerous ingredients, or if it has side effects that are not adequately warned about.
- A medical device may be dangerous if it is not properly designed or manufactured, or if it has defects that can cause serious injuries or death.
- Pharmaceutical companies are prohibited from marketing their drugs for uses that have not been approved by the FDA. If a drug company markets a drug for an off-label use, and the patient is injured as a result, the company may be held liable.
