The Duragesic Pain Patch Lawsuit |
If you or someone you care about has been seriously injured because of a defect in a Fentanyl Pain Patch including the brand name Duragesic Fentanyl Pain Patch, you should seek legal advice from an attorney immediately. As with all legal matters, there are strict time limits within which a claim needs to be brought. Pharmaceutical companies fight hard to enforce these time limits. Contact our attorneys for the help you need in evaluating whether you have a valid claim and whether you should bring a Fentanyl Pain Patch Lawsuit.
On June 19, 2007, a jury awarded $5.5 million against the Johnson & Johnson subsidiaries that manufacture the Duragesic pain patch (Alza Corporation and Janssen Pharmaceutical Products). In that case, a 28 year old man died while using a Duragesic pain patch. Another jury awarded $16.5 million in a Duragesic patch lawsuit in which a 38 year old woman died because of a defective patch.
The Food and Drug Administration has found problems in the manufacturing practices and quality control procedures in the production of the pain patch. Defects in some batches of the patch have led to serious injury and even death. Some batches of the Duragesic Fentanyl pain patch and generic fentanyl pain patch have been recalled in pain patch recalls.
