Heparin Recall Lawyer

Dangerous Drugs Attorney

In early 2008, Baxter Healthcare Corporation took the rather dramatic action of recalling certain versions of Heparin, following the revelation that this drug may have been linked to the death of multiple patients. Although this Heparin recall was an important step, it did not come in time to protect the health of many people.

If you or someone you love has been injured or killed as the result of defective drug, you may have a personal injury or wrongful death claim. Contact the Bohrer Law Firm to discuss your potential legal claims with an experienced lawyer.

Heparin is a widely-used blood thinner, administered during surgery and in other situations to avoid blood clotting. The anti-coagulant properties of Heparin have been known and used for decades, but recent events surrounding Heparin have brought to light serious harms resulting from the use of the drug.

Hundreds of people have reported serious allergic reactions to Heparin provided by the Baxter Healthcare Corporation. Reactions have included nausea, vomiting, sweating, shortness of breath, and rapidly falling blood pressure, which can have life-threatening consequences.

The drugs causing allergic reactions have generally been traced to a poorly regulated manufacturing plant in China - and this Heparin has been recalled. Unfortunately, Baxter is responsible for a large percentage of the Heparin available in the United States - which means that many people were exposed to this defective drug before the Heparin recall.

If you have been harmed as the result of the administration of contaminated Heparin, come to the Bohrer Law Firm today. Our attorneys have the experience to get the results you need and deserve.
