Law Firm Bond & Taylor Launches New Campaign to Help Victims of Blood Thinner Pradaxa(R)
The law firm Bond & Taylor announced a new campaign today to help victims of the popular blood thinner medication PradaxaŽ.
- Amarillo, TX (1888PressRelease) November 10, 2012 - Bond & Taylor's talented team of product liability attorneys is offering a free consultation to patients who have suffered PradaxaŽ blood thinner injuries.
PradaxaŽ (dabigatran) is a popular blood thinning medication taken by atrial fibrillation patients to prevent the blood clots that lead to stroke. Manufacturer Boehringer- Ingelheim reports their medication has been expanded for use in 70 countries with a combined prescription experience of 1 million patient years. However, recent reports of fatal bleeds have led experts to question its safety over its popular competitor, WafarinŽ, which was also riddled with alleged safety complaints.
Manufacturer framed PradaxaŽ as superior to its competitor because it required less daily monitoring on the doctor's end. However, the tradeoff has been an increase in alleged internal bleeds that could be potentially fatal. Unlike its competitors, PradaxaŽ does not have an antidote. If patients on WafarinŽ experience a bleed, doctors can administer a small shot of Vitamin K to stop the bleed. However, Vitamin K does not work to reverse the effects of PradaxaŽ. No known medication reverses the effects of PradaxaŽ. In cases of internal bleeding, doctors have few options; they can watch their patient die or they can attempt an emergency dialysis, as suggested by Boehringer- Ingelheim. However, there is no science to suggest that this attempt works.
Partner Andrew Wright notes, "We have heard some horrifying stories of PradaxaŽ users who have died as the result of a simple slip and fall. We want to reach out to patients who have suffered PradaxaŽ injuries and help them as best we can."
The law firm of Bond & Taylor wants to aid victims who have suffered PradaxaŽ injury with sound legal advice and decades of experience handling personal injury and product liability cases. Bond & Taylor represents clients nationwide and is offering free consultations to all injured PradaxaŽ users.
