Many medical maladies have scientific-sounding names, but one major problem for numerous Americans is named after two individuals: Stevens Johnson Syndrome (often misspelled as Steven Johnson Syndrome). This potentially deadly disease is believed to be caused by consumers placing trust in the safety of over the counter (OTC) drugs which instead prove to be harmful.

The birth control pills known as Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella are what's known as a form of “fourth generation” combination birth control. Unlike every other kind of birth control, these three relatively recent creations feature a relatively new synthetic progestin named drospirenone.
Digitek, a drug designed to help heart patients, instead may be killing them. In 2008 the drug was recalled due to a manufacturing error which led to some Digitek pills featuring digoxin being twice as thick and having twice as much medication as needed. This overdose can cause patients with kidney problems or renal failure to suffer from Digitek toxicity.
The purpose of a Duragesic pain patch is to manage severe chronic pain by administering small doses of narcotic pain-easing medication at intervals. However, some such Duragesic pain patch devices have proven to be defective while supplying far more dosage of medication than is necessary. These defective Duragesic pain patch devices have hurt and killed many people throughout America.
During the growing concern of Avandia and the possible increased risk of heart attacks, Dr. David Nathan again weighed in with an article in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) in the June 5, 2007 issue. He asserts that although there is no firm evidence that Avandia causes heart attacks, this drug is not a person accused of a crime – there is no reason to presume that it is innocent. In fact, that could be a dangerous course of action for both doctors and patients.
Fosamax was designed to help reduce bone loss, especially for people with osteoporosis. However soon after the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved it for use in 1995, doctors and dentists started to notice a rise in osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) or “jaw bone death.” In this usually-rare disease, blood vessels in the jaw start to disappear literally killing the cells within the bone itself.
Gadolinium-based contrast dyes, when used in an MRI or MRA exam, are unlikely to harm some persons but can have serious health impact on those with kidney ailments. If you or a loved one has suffered harm due to an MRI injury or MRA injury via gadolinium, alert a knowledgeable MRI/gadolinium lawyer or attorney with Jim S. Adler & Associates for help in a gadolinium lawsuit.
Women's birth control pills are designed to prevent pregnancy and, in some cases, combat acne, premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). What they should not do is harm a woman. Yet defective oral contraceptive drugs Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella are known to do just that, leading to heart attacks, strokes and even death.
Heparin is a potentially life-saving drug which has been in use since the 1930s. It's chiefly helpful in patients who have a risk of developing fatal blood clots during some medical procedures. In Texas or elsewhere, as a blood thinner, heparin is an anticoagulant that lessens blood’s clotting ability. Often given by injection or subcutaneously (through an IV or just below the skin), it's used to prevent blood clots from forming and to help stop growth of already formed blood clots. When heparin harms, find a lawyer to help.
Ketek, known generically as telithromycin, is a ketolide antibiotic used for the treatment of respiratory infections including chronic bronchitis, acute bacterial sinusitis and community-acquired pneumonia. Ketek is manufactured by Sanofi-Aventis.

Persons who undergo the unpleasantness of a colonoscopy to find possible health dangers may experience severe health problems as a result of the exam. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has issued an urgent national warning -- including a so-called "box warning" -- for products using OSP, or Oral Sodium Phosphate. Sold both over-the-counter and via prescription, OSP often is taken as a laxative to clean out the bowels prior to an exam such as a colonoscopy.
It is one thing to accept the risks of any medication like Paxilwhen you yourself are taking them, but it is quite another for parents to assume that risk on behalf of their children. Yet that is what many parents are forced to do – and often they do not have all the information in order to make an informed decision.

Again, a defective drug unleashed by a pharmaceutical company may be endangering many Americans. In this case it is Raptiva, a psoriasis drug which could cause a serious brain infection and even result in death.
The Food and Drug Administration on Feb. 19 issued an advisory citing three confirmed cases -- and a possible fourth case -- of persons being diagnosed with progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) after they were treated with Raptiva.
When it comes to the defective drug Reglan, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has had enough. This year the FDA issued its fabled "black box warning" -- its most severe admonition -- on the labeling for prescription pharmaceuticals containing the generic drug metoclopramide, also known under the brand name Reglan. Users are now formally warned that the drug which is often used to treat acid reflux or heartburn can be extremely dangerous.
