Did you take Brethine or Terbutaline during pregnancy between 1998 and 2011? If so, your children could be entitled to compensation.
Our mass tort attorneys recently obtained a very significant decision from the California Supreme Court that allows victims — specifically fraternal twins with brain damage and severe autism — to sue the brand-name manufacturer (Novartis) for injuries they suffered in utero when their mother was prescribed a generic drug called Terbutaline. Brethine (brand name)/Terbutaline (generic) was an asthma drug that was prescribed off-label to women to prevent pre-term labor.
The dirty little secret of the drug is that Novartis (brand-name manufacturer who later sold off the drug) knew that it could cause damage to fetuses in utero but did not adequately warn doctors or patients. The problem — for thousands of families — is that their children may have suffered severe complications as a result.
The expert Terbutaline lawyers at our firm were among the first in America to obtain a standing state supreme court ruling that a brand-name manufacturer can be held liable for injuries to someone who took a generic drug.
Considering over 80% of prescription drugs taken in America are generic, the implications of this case cannot be understated. Contact us today and fill out the following fields; our team will be in touch to discuss how you can win back from this historic ruling.
