Infants: The Ones Feeling the Affects of Paxil's Harmful Side

Paxil (paroxetine) Damages Infants' Hearts.

As a parent, you'd never do anything that negatively affects your baby.

When you took Paxil (paroxetine) to treat anxiety and depression, you probably thought it would help you live a happier, healthier life.

The problem is, there were dangerous side effects, and Paxil's makers took far too long to disclose that the drug that was helping you was poisoning your baby's heart.

Paxil can cause extremely serious birth defects in newborns, putting babies' lives at risk. You can file a lawsuit if your baby was born with a birth defect or holes in his/her heart and you took Paxil during the first part of your pregnancy.

Taken during your first trimester, Paxil doubles your baby's risk of being born with ventricular septal defects (VSDs), more commonly known as holes in the heart.

If your baby has VSDs, his or her heart has to work harder to oxygenate blood, and this extra work can enlarge the heart muscle. Over time, your baby's heart may be permanently damaged. In severe cases, your baby's only hope may be surgical therapy.

Your baby may be helpless, but you don't have to be. You can take active steps to hold GlaxoSmithKline, Paxil's manufacturer, responsible for your baby's suffering. Use this simple form below to contact a Paxil (paroxetine) lawyer/attorney.
