South Carolina Zantac Lawyer
In 2020, U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) officials announced a voluntary recall of Zantac. The medication, which reduces stomach acid, may contain unsafe levels of a dangerous chemical called N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA). NDMA has been shown to cause liver damage in humans. If you or someone you love suffered liver damage after taking Zantac, we will help you pursue financial compensation.
The company that made Zantac and failed to inform you or your doctor of its liver damage risks can be held liable for negligence. Our goal is to help you recover compensation for your expenses, including medical bills and pain and suffering. At Anastopoulo Law Firm, our South Carolina Zantac lawyer is bringing injured clients together to file a joint case – called a mass tort – against the drug company.
Why Zantac’s Maker Might Be Liable for Your Compromised Health
Many of the drugs that people take daily have annoying side effects or dangerous drug interactions. When the makers of these drugs alert you to them, you and your health care team can make an informed decision about their use. According to Cancers (Basel), the ranitidine in Zantac can lead to the following cancer types:
- Pharyngeal
- Esophageal
- Stomach
- Colorectal
- Liver
- Pancreatic
If you or someone you love was diagnosed with one of these types of cancer or with anal or gallbladder cancer, you could qualify for monetary recovery. When you join our mass torts case, we help each individual plaintiff seek financial damages in a single lawsuit against a single defendant.
Damages You Can Recover From Our Mass Torts Case
When we represent you, we make sure the value assigned to your case is accurate. We also make sure we provide the negligent party and its insurance company with proof of value. The damages you can recover include:
- All related medical bills
- All related incomes losses
- Future lost earnings
- Physical impairment
- Pain and suffering
- Mental anguish
- Emotional distress
You are not alone in building any part of your case, including assessing its financial value. You can learn more about verdicts and awards we have secured on our case results page. We accumulate the bills, receipts, and medical prognosis that help prove what your case is worth. Our team then organizes your evidence and provides it to the at-fault party and its representative as part of the settlement negotiation process.
Do Not Wait to Seek Financial Recovery
For people who damaged their health with Zantac use, our mass tort case is a compilation of individual personal injury cases. Like all personal injury cases, the state prohibits you from seeking compensation after a predetermined time. Per S.C. Ann. § 15-3-530, the statute of limitations for personal injury and wrongful death is generally three years. If it expires:
- You will not be able to file your lawsuit.
- Your lawsuit will be dismissed immediately.
Our team helps you determine the date of your injuries, which can be hard to do with a medical injury versus an injury you might sustain in an accident. To ensure the filing deadline does not expire and that your lawsuit is not in jeopardy, we ensure compliance with enough notice.
