Raleigh Dangerous Drugs Lawyers

Fighting for the Compensation You Are Owed

Pharmaceutical manufacturers have a duty to make sure that that pharmaceutical drugs are safe for use and that risks associated with these products are made clear to physicians and consumers. While new drugs must be evaluated by the FDA before being approved for use, it can be difficult to identify all potential long-term risks during the testing process.

If you've suffered an injury after taking a dangerous drug, you can request a free consultation with our skilled Raleigh personal injury attorneys at Wilson Law, P.A. to see if you are entitled to file a product liability claim.

Challenges in Pharmaceutical Injury Claims

North Carolina applies the learned intermediary rule to dangerous drug cases. This rule considers physicians to be learned intermediaries between manufacturers and consumers. As long as the physician is properly warned of the potential risks and side effects of a drug, the manufacturer is shielded from liability.

Pharmaceutical companies and their high-powered legal teams often try to hide behind this rule in order to blame doctors and deflect liability in pharmaceutical injury cases. It's important to work with a Raleigh dangerous drugs attorney who has extensive experience handling these cases and understands the impact of the learned intermediary rule.
