In recent years, many prescription drugs and dietary supplements have been linked to serious health problems. In fact, since 1993 at least 10 high profile drugs, approved by the FDA, have been withdrawn after reports of deaths and severe side effects suffered by their consumers. Vioxx, for example, was removed from the market worldwide because new data from a clinical trial found an increased risk of heart attack, stroke, blood clots and other cardiovascular complications.

Our attorneys understand the complexities involved in Vioxx and other defective drug and medical device litigation. We are committed to representing people injured through the negligent and intentional acts of pharmaceutical manufacturers.

Patients don't want to think their prescription drugs will harm them because they have been approved and prescribed by doctors or pharmacists they know and trust. Unfortunately, many of these defective drugs are inadequately tested or have insufficient warnings on their labels. Ultimately, they can lead to serious health ailments, from high blood pressure to acute liver failure. We can help build your case. The attorneys of Cohen, Placitella & Roth have years of experience in helping people get the compensation they deserve from manufacturers of harmful drugs.
