Paxil Alert! Pregnant Women Are Risking Their Baby's Safety
The FDA Warns Pregnant Women About the Dangers of Paxil to Their Babies
Women who take Paxil (paroxetine) while pregnant must be alert to the serious risk they are carrying of having a baby with birth defects, particularly birth defects relating to the heart.
GlaxoSmithKline, the makers of Paxil, knew their drug would place pregnant women and their children in danger, but did not warn many women of the danger in a timely fashion.
Paxil has been around since 1993, but it was only in December of 2005, 12 years after Paxil was introduced to the market, that GlaxoSmithKline and the FDA changed Paxil's labeling to accurately reflect how bad it was for pregnant women and their fetuses.
Don't let GlaxoSmithKline get away with marketing a drug that they knew could harm your baby.
You placed your trust in Paxil to help you have a safe and healthy pregnancy, but that trust was breached by GSK.
They placed your baby's health in danger, but you are not powerless. Do your part to hold GSK accountable for your baby's needless suffering by filing a lawsuit against them with the assistance of experienced lawyers at Weitz & Luxenberg.
Unfortunately, we can't make your baby healthy, but we can help get you compensation so that you will always be able to take care of your child without having to worry about covering medical bills.
We can also make sure that enough lawsuits are filed so GSK can't hurt other people's children.
