Boehringer Hit with Another Pradaxa Injury Lawsuit
By Mike Holter
A new lawsuit has been filed against Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals alleging the company failed to warn about the risk of Pradaxa side effects. Plaintiff Jose Monebias alleges in the Pradaxa lawsuit that the blood-thinning drug caused him to suffer a severe stroke that left him with permanent injuries, including partial paralysis. Monebias alleges in his Pradaxa lawsuit that he was prescribed Pradaxa to treat his atrial fibrillation. According to his Pradaxa injury lawyer, neither Monebias nor his doctor were aware that Pradaxa carried the risk of uncontrollable bleeding without an antidote because there was no such warning on the drug's label. Had they been aware of this risk, they would not have chosen Pradaxa to treat Monebias' condition, the lawsuit alleges.
Monebias, with the help of his Pradaxa lawyer, is suing Boehringer for actual, treble and punitive damages for his injuries, which he says caused him emotional distress, mental and physical pain, economic loss, and ongoing medical expenses.
Pradaxa Lawsuits Consolidated in MDL
On August 8, 2012, a judicial panel consolidated all pending and future Pradaxa lawsuits into multidistrict litigation (MDL) before U.S. District Judge David R. Herndon. The new Pradaxa lawsuit MDL is good news for Pradaxa bleeding victims hoping to pursue compensation for their injuries because it will streamline the litigation process and hopefully make it easier to secure a Pradaxa lawsuit settlement. A settlement awarded in the Pradaxa MDL could be much more than one obtained through a Pradaxa class action lawsuit settlement. If you are considering filing a lawsuit to pursue compensation from Boehringer, a Pradaxa compensation specialist can help determine which course of legal action will help you obtain the most money for your injuries.
