Where Bextra or any other medication is shown to be a likely contributing cause of an injury, filing a lawsuit may be the appropriate means by which to recover damages for injuries sustained. Clinical studies have shown that those who have taken Bextra are at an increased risk of cardiovascular and gastro-intestinal problems like blood clots, strokes, heart attacks, stomach and intestinal bleeding, acute allergic reactions, kidney problems, and severe liver problems. Those who have taken Bextra are also in danger of serious skin reactions. Those who have suffered adverse side effects or injuries relating to Bextra may be entitled to monetary compensation for their ailments. However, only those injured parties who file a Bextra lawsuit will be compensated for their injuries. A qualified attorney will be able to advise you of the merits of your case and help to assure your recovery of the maximum possible damage awards.

If you are currently taking Bextra, the FDA and Pfizer advise that you stop taking the drug and contact your physician to discuss alternative treatments. After addressing your health concerns with your physician, it is advisable to contact a qualified attorney if you or a loved one has taken Bextra in any amount for any duration of time. An experienced attorney can inform you of your legal rights and will be able to determine the best plan of action. Should a lawsuit be deemed appropriate, your attorney will work closely with you to maximize any compensation award to which you are entitled. In order to best serve you, your attorney will need to perform an investigation of your circumstances. Initially, your attorney will need to know the times at which you started and stopped taking the drug, the location at which Bextra was prescribed to you, and the specific dosage of Bextra prescribed. Other information and a medical evaluation may be necessary as your Bextra lawsuit proceeds.
