How can drugs and medicines be defective?
While all new drugs and medicines are tested extensively, the fact is that some defects don't surface until it is too late. Thalidomide is one tragic example of this: the drug was approved for use in the treatment of morning sickness, but the trials were deeply flawed and the drug was later found to cause severe birth defects.
Slater and Gordon has acted for many victims of Thalidomide, and still continues to fight for the victims of other defective drugs, medicines and medical treatments.
If you've been harmed, we may be able to help you make a defective drug compensation claim.
Which drugs and medicines have been found unsafe?
Drugs, medicines, medical treatments and even health supplements are all subject to clinical trials before they are approved for sale to the public. However, problems can and do arise, in everything from so-called 'fat-burning' diet supplements to the Human Growth Hormone that was found to have been contaminated with Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD).
