Ketek Recommendations

Weitz and Luxenberg is no longer accepting Ketek cases.

Healthcare providers should monitor patients taking telithromycin for signs or symptoms of liver problems. Telithromycin should be stopped in patients who develop signs or symptoms of liver problems.

Patients who have been prescribed telithromycin and are not experiencing side effects such as jaundice should continue taking their medicine as prescribed unless otherwise directed by their healthcare provider.

Patients who notice any yellowing of their eyes or skin or other problems like blurry vision should contact their healthcare provider immediately.

As with all antibiotics, telithromycin should only be used for infections caused by a susceptible microorganism.

Telithromycin is not effective in treating viral infections, so a patient with a viral infection should not receive telithromycin since they would be exposed to the risk of side effects without any benefit.

Act Now! It is essential that you inquire about your Ketek lawsuit as soon as possible. Your individual state's law may limit your time to bring a legal claim to protect your rights. Your legal review is free and there is no commitment. Your case will be evaluated immediately, so get started on your claim today!
