Avandia Lawyers

Avandia LawyersHave you or someone you love suffered from medical injuries from the use of the prescription drug Avandia? If so, you may be entitled to compensation for your losses and damages. Manufactured by drugmaker GlaxoSmithKline, Avandia is commonly prescribed to patients who suffer from diabetes.

Avandia is part of the drug class known as thiazolidnediones (TZDs) and works by increasing the body’s sensitivity to insulin while also aiding in managing blood sugar.  Of those who have been prescribed Avandia, many later develop one or more of the following conditions that enable them to file for personal injury compensation under the law:

  • Loss of vision
  • Strokes
  • Heart attacks
  • Bone Fractures
  • Congestive heart failure (CHF)
  • Liver Failure

At Chandler, Mathis, & Zivley we are actively reviewing cases in which clients have experienced injuries and serious side effects after taking this oral antidiabetic. The failure of GlaxoSmithKline to properly warn patients of the risks associated with Avandia has resulted in numerous deaths and a barrage of class-action lawsuits.

If you or someone you love has taken Avandia or Reglan and is now suffering from serious side effects, compensation may be available. Contact us today to learn more.
