Xarelto Lawsuit Update
Hundreds of Xarelto lawsuits have been filed against Bayer/Johnson & Johnson. The plaintiffs argue that the companies failed to warn patients of the severe risks of Xarelto. The drug has caused massive bleeding in patients and is currently under litigation. The pharmaceutical company has yet to admit liability and has refused to settle any cases involving Xarelto. While the drug has been on the market for eight years, there have been several high-profile deaths.
The drug has been the subject of numerous lawsuits, dating back to 2014.
The multidistrict litigation was consolidated on December 15, 2014, with 33 cases. It is estimated that the number of Xarelto lawsuits could now top 20,000. The FDA is investigating the claims and will likely rule in the plaintiffs’ favor. The recent revelation of new information shows that drug companies may have known about the risks of Xarelto for a much longer period than previously thought. The companies may have withheld warnings intentionally to get the drug on the market.
Several Xarelto lawsuits have been filed by individuals and families affected by the drug. Many of these suits seek to force the company to change the drug. The FDA is currently investigating these allegations and has yet to rule on the merits of these claims. If a plaintiff were able to take the drug, they may be able to sue the manufacturer. This drug is known to have serious side effects, including heart attacks and stroke.
Since the drug was approved by the FDA, it has been recalled and has been subjected to numerous lawsuits.
These suits allege that Xarelto caused serious side effects. This is the first time that the FDA has approved a drug for this purpose. This medicine has been a major problem for patients and their families. The company is not liable for any adverse effects caused by Xarelto.
Xarelto lawsuits were filed to force the manufacturer to make changes to the drug. The drug’s manufacturer has a legal obligation to make the drug safe for consumers. However, if they fail to do so, their actions may cause serious injury to patients. The FDA has ordered a settlement to resolve these lawsuits. The plaintiffs will be awarded compensation if they can prove that Xarelto caused the harmful side effects they experienced.
The first Xarelto lawsuit was filed on behalf of the claimant’s father.
Xarelto was prescribed for his Atrial Fibrillation, and he died four days after taking the drug. The FDA has since approved the drug. This drug has been used for over a decade in the United States. It has been approved by the FDA in 2012. This lawsuit was originally filed by the claimant’s father, who had suffered from a heart condition and had a heart attack.
A Xarelto lawsuit update provides a look at the status of a pending trial. It is not uncommon for the lawsuit to last a few months, which means that it will be crucial for the Xarelto lawsuit to go to trial. A court-appointed judge will have to decide on the fate of the drug’s victims. The resulting ruling will help determine if the drug should be banned.
If you have suffered from any of the Xarelto side effects, you may want to consider consulting with a product liability attorney.
Xarelto patients with gastrointestinal bleeding may want to speak with a lawyer. These attorneys can also help with other claims. Some of the most common side effects include discolored urine, heavy menstruation, and a stroke. The drug has been used by the FDA since 2004 and has caused over 900 deaths.
The Xarelto lawsuits have been filed in many states, including Pennsylvania and Delaware. In January, a state court judge in Philadelphia threw out a previous Xarelto verdict based on testimony from a treating physician. This doctor testified that the patient had not received a proper warning about the drug’s side effects. This means that a court in Pennsylvania may be able to dismiss the Xarelto lawsuits.

I developed a right DVT in August 2019. I was symptom free but went to ER because I knew something was very wrong. I was diagnosed with a R. DVT. I had to push to have an U/S done as I had no symptoms. I was placed on Xarelto, I did NOT miss any doses. When my 3 months of Xarelto was completed, I was prescribed Jantoven- due to the cost of Xarelto. I then started Jantoven until my right hip replacement-on 12/04/2019. I started back on Jantoven on the same day of surgery. I discontinued Jantoven just prior to my L. knee replacement surgery on 05/04/ 2020. I restarted Jantoven the same day or the next day.
After surgery, I went back on Jantoven. On day 9 postop, my pain increased significantly. I felt something was very wrong. I went ER as I felt I had a DVT. The MD said that was highly unlikely as I was on Jantoven. The MD also said the pain was related to post op knee replacement. I really h.ad to again push to get a U/S performed. Guess what? I had a left DVT. The cause we all felt was due to my INR being too low-1..8. I was then placed back on Xarelto as I had no adverse effects when I was previously taking Xarelto. I was on Xarelto for 5 weeks and went back to the ER. Different MD but his reaction was the same-couldn’t be a clot as I was on Xarelto. I had to really push again to get an U/S. I then found out that I had 2 additional, new clots in my left calf. I shudder to think what would have happened to a patient who was not as assertive/persistent as I was-possibly a P.E.?
My post op recovery was a nightmare due to the incredible amount pain and swelling that I was experiencing- due to having 3 clots. The result was less than the expected degree of flexion-should have been 130 degrees but mine was only 90 degrees on a good day. Due to the clots, my circulation in my L calf is poor. This will be an ongoing for the rest of my life! My life is very much impacted by these clots. These clots are now chronic and remain present-after all this time.!!! I will.remain on diuretics and Jantoven for the rest of my life. My surgeon and myself feel if I only had 1 clot instead of 3, my postop and life in general would have been much better. Once I started on Lqsix and Potassium, I lost 8 lbs.
Hello,
This is a brief synopsis of what happened. I know that excessive bleeding is a side effect but developing clots?
My history is that I had a L. DVT in 09/2005. I had bloodwork done to find out if I had a bleeding disorder. There was no bleeding disorder. I was bridged onto Warfarin after my treatment with Lovenox. I remained on Warfarin for 6 months after my diagnosis. I remained without clots until 2019.
Thank you very much for looking into this very significant side effect.
