Pennsylvania Dangerous Drugs Lawyer

Pharmaceutical companies are constantly looking for new ways to sell their prescription drugs, whether it’s repackaging old drugs and passing them off as new ones or creating ailments that may not actually exist.

With the market inundated with commercials and advertisements touting the latest cures for just about every illness imaginable, people are made to believe that these drugs are safe and effective.

In fact, prescription drug use is on the rise. The Institute of Medicine reported in its 2006 publication, Preventing Medication Errors, that 4 out of 5 adults use prescription medicine, over-the-counter drugs, or dietary supplements of some sort every single week. Nearly one-third of adults will take five or more every week.

Such widespread use of drugs, and mixing drugs, can cause very serious drug injuries that have long-lasting effects. What most pharmaceutical companies don’t tell consumers, however, is that many drugs have dangerous side effects that can do more harm than good, resulting in a drug injury. Reach out to our Pennsylvania dangerous drugs lawyers at Ostroff Godshall Injury and Accident Lawyers to learn more about your legal options after using an unsafe medication.
