What
should I do if I want to sue the manufacturer of
OxyContin?
Manufacturers of drugs and supplements, such as
OxyContin, may be held responsible for the sale of
defective drugs. The obligation of the manufacturer
is to make a safe product including the duty to
design, manufacture, inspect, and label a product
appropriately. Proving that a manufacturer of a drug
supplement is responsible for a defective product
can be complicated and expensive. An experienced
attorney on your side is your best bet for fighting
a case against a manufacturer.
What is a tort personal
injury?
An injury or wrong committed, with or without force,
to the person or property of another, which gives
rise to a claim for damages.
When is a
prescription of OxyContin considered a criminal
activity?
Prescribing OxyContin is considered a criminal
activity if any of the following occurs:
A doctor fraudulently prescribes OxyContin to
abusers for money.
A pharmacist illegally fills an abusers
prescription, or forges prescriptions for abusers.
Abusers steal prescription pads, and then write
their own forged prescriptions.
Dealers, or abusers, burglarize pharmacies.
If a member of my
family is addicted to OxyContin, what can I do?
First, and immediately, seek medical treatment for
your family member. Next, contact an attorney, such
as those at Brown & Crouppen, who have experience
with OxyContin claims. You may have a legal claim
and be entitled to compensation.
Has there been any
class action lawsuits against the makers of
OxyContin?
In June 2001, a group of Virginia residents filed a
class-action lawsuit against the makers (Perdue
Pharma LP) and distributors of OxyContin. They claim
that the company knew the prescription painkiller
was addictive, failed to tell patients of the risks,
marketed the drug inappropriately and touched off an
epidemic of abuse.
When should I
contact an attorney?
You should contact an experienced OxyContin
attorney, such as Brown & Crouppen, immediately if
you feel you may have a claim against the
manufacturer or distributors of OxyContin, or if you
feel your doctor has prescribed the medication to
you in error. Also, after contacting your doctor,
please contact us if you feel you have become
addicted to OxyContin.
