Florida Victoza Lawyer

Victoza is a prescription medication that is used to help people with type two diabetes regulate their blood sugar. As part of the incretin mimetics classification of drugs, it works by imitating incretin, which is a naturally occurring hormone that the body produces to increase insulin production.

While this medication may be helpful for those trying to manage their type 2 diabetes, Victoza has been linked to an increased risk of developing serious complications including pancreatic cancer. This, in turn, has resulted in numerous lawsuits against Victoza’s manufacturer Novo Nordisk based on a strict products liability theory. Florida has recognized when a product causes an injury, the person or company who produces that product can be held liable for any resulting injuries and losses.If you or a loved one suffered an injury and adverse side effects after taking Victoza, contact a West Palm Beach Victoza lawyer today to discuss your rights and options. A seasoned mass torts attorney could help hold large pharmaceutical manufacturing companies liable for releasing an unreasonably dangerous medication and could help you recover compensation.

Victoza’s Manufacturer

Victoza is manufactured by Novo Nordisk and was first approved for use as a treatment for type 2 diabetes by the U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2010. Since its release, the FDA has issued several announcements about this medication, including a statement in 2013 that the FDA would begin investigating whether incretin mimetics cause an increased risk of pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer. A West Palm Beach Victoza lawyer could help an injured individual hold the manufacturer responsible.

Studies Linking the Drug to Potential Side Effects

Victoza is a commonly prescribed medication to treat type 2 diabetes. Used in conjunction with diet and exercise, this medication helps regulate a person’s blood sugar levels.

In 2011 a study was conducted by researchers at the University of California in Los Angeles linking GLP-1 drugs such as Victoza to an increased chance of developing pancreatic cancer. Researchers found that patients who used Victoza were three times as likely to develop pancreatic cancer. In addition to pancreatic cancer, Victoza has been linked to other serious complications including thyroid cancer and pancreatitis.

Pharmaceutical Companies Can be Held Liable in West Palm Beach

Product liability law imposes a duty on manufacturers and sellers to ensure their products are free from unreasonable defects or dangers. In order for a person to recover compensation for their injuries, they must prove that the product was defective and that the defect caused their injuries. Florida recognizes several distinct types of defects in a product.

A manufacturing defect is one that is attributed to a condition that makes the product unreasonably dangerous for the user. A product is considered to have a design defect if the product fails to perform as safely as an ordinary consumer would expect when it is used as intended.

In a lawsuit based on a theory of products liability, the court will employ a risk-utility test, which examines whether the risk of danger in the design of the product outweighs the benefits the product offers. A West Palm Beach Victoza lawyer could assist an injured person by proving liability on behalf of the pharmaceutical company.

Consult with a West Palm Beach Victoza Attorney Today

Numerous lawsuits have been filed against Victoza’s manufacturer and have been consolidated into multi-district lawsuits. If you or a loved one are considering filing a lawsuit after taking Victoza, contact and consult with a West Palm Beach Victoza lawyer.

A skilled attorney can help prove your injuries and losses and will not be intimidated by large pharmaceutical companies. Victoza is a registered trademark of Novo Nordisk and is used here only to identify the product in question. Call today to learn more.
