Recover From Your Injuries From Using Valsartan

In 2018, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) declared that Valsartan, a drug used for hypertension, has a side effect of causing a wide array of cancer. As a result, the FDA issued a recall letter in 2018 announcing this deadly side effect. If you believe you have suffered from Valsartan, you deserve to seek compensation for your injuries.

Here at The Leigh Law Firm, we are a team of compassionate attorneys who want to protect your best interests after you’ve been hurt by a dangerous product. The cancer that Valsartan could cause is often life-threatening. Because of this, you should not settle for compensation without consulting with an attorney. We can help you get the best possible outcome in your case.

Connect with us today and arrange your free consultation with a skilled and compassionate legal professional at our firm.

What Valsartan Can Do To You

Valsartan, although it was supposed to help with hypertension, contained large amounts of carcinogens that can cause a person to suffer cancer in many forms such as:

  • Stomach cancer
  • Bowel cancer
  • Esophageal cancer
  • Pancreatic cancer
  • Colon cancer

Because the liver is the primary organ in contact with these carcinogens, one may also experience liver failure if they took this drug.

Cancer, as well as liver failure, is very costly to a victim, as well as their family. The damages come in the form of medicine costs, hospital stays, chemotherapy, lost income, and pain and suffering, just to name a few. The first settlement offer commonly does not cover the cost of everything you may experience from the side effects of the drug.
