St. Louis Dangerous Drug Attorney
Side Effects from Drugs
Many prescription drugs have dangerous side effects that can result in serious injuries and even death. Before a pharmaceutical drug can be sold, it must be approved by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA). Even when a drug causes adverse reactions, it may still be allowed on the market if the FDA determines the benefits outweigh the risks, or only a small percentage of people may be harmed. Sometimes these drugs can cause severe medical problems that only come to light after many years.
If you have been harmed taking a pharmaceutical drug, contact a St. Louis personal injury lawyer from The Floyd Law Firm to find out your rights to
personal injury compensation. We are deeply committed to your health and well-being, and will seek maximum benefits if you have taken a medically-prescribed drug that has caused physical damage.

Thousands of people are injured each year by FDA approved drugs that were improperly researched or tested. Defective medication can severely worsen an existing physical condition, and result in life-long disabilities. Some drugs that are known to produce severe injuries include:
- Reglan
- Yaz and Yasmin
- Avandia
- Celebrex
- Darvon and Darvocet
- Rezulin
- Paxil
- Vioxx
