Lyrica Class Action Lawsuit (Page 2) (Top voted first)
UpdatedIf you have had an adverse reaction to Lyrica, please contact a law firm. I just called mine and gave them my basic information, and they will be having a lawyer contact us. This drug is dangerous, deadly, and should be pulled from the market. Amomg all the usual issues, today i noticed a new one had been added. For males, sperm motility can be affected and children created by parents using Lyrica, there is the possibility of birth defects. Please call and at least get on record with this firm. The more of us who call and tell our stories, the more likely it is that the drug company is going to have to cover our medical expenses, pain and suffering, etc.
I need a lawyer in nc. Can any one help? Lost job due to condition worsening
Yeah I am Brisbane, Australia. I have found case studies where lyrica has caused issues in trials. But it's not gonna be a easy scenario considering well for myself the complexity of my now situation. But as the saying goes,many hands make light work
I am in Canada and have been taking Lyrica for 6 months. I am scared to come off of it but am also having the side effects with my memory, terrible depression and suicidal thoughts, weight gain, poor concentration and so on. Can someone connect me with a lawyer to speak to?
Will the law firm take on those of us who are in the United States too? I thinking it would be almost impossible to do that.
Unfortunately it appears that those of us in the United States can not email to this lawyer or get on their website. If Tony has any information that might be able to help us on this side of the globe, could you please share? Thank you Kez
Hi Brit Glad your still with us. I honestly don't think I would have tried it under normal circumstance. And my damn doctor should have know Lyrica causes suicidal ideation and taken me off right then but she didn't. Now that the holidays are over I'm going to contact a law firm and see if a lawsuit is even possible or personal injury or maybe at least point us in the right direction. After all first consult is always free. Hang in there everybody!
Brit. Look down on this thread at comment number 18. Kez found a lawyer in Australia. He has an email listed for the lawyer. If you do speak to this lawyer and if he is going to follow thru see if he has any recommendations for us in the United States. Good luck!!!
Heather, I was put on Lyrica over six years ago and at that time they were not stating any of this as side affects. My doctor didn't know any of these side affects until beginning of 2015 when they actually added all those side affects to cover their ass because they were suid in 2013 for advertising it as a drug for neuropothy without any drug trials to back it up and they lost. I lost six years of my life and there are to many that have worst conditions then I did. I'm sure they didn't advertise that it would put you in a wheelchair.
Brett,
Kez who has been apart of this thread had found one in AUSTRALIA. Email: [email protected]
Not sure how Kez has been making out as he was very sick. If you do get in contact with this lawyer, see if they know anyone in the United States.
I've taken myself off all pharmecueticles. I'm lucky enough that I can cause I believe Lyrica took my legs too! I will say this, life is slower, a bit hectic at times. Lost my wife too. I still have a great son a grandaughter with some awesome friends! Grab unto that if you can? I'm having major dental work completed and my teeth were always perfect. It's sad to see how money rules some people's souls.
It's not about the money for many of us, it's about preventing these things from happening to others and getting Lyrica off the market or at least more research needs to be done on the side effects of permanent damage to people's physical and mental health. It is the drug that has ruined our souls not being money hungry. Some people do not have the money to have the proper care needed or specialist doctors to go to to be able to regain their health. We are all supporting eachother just with being able to discuss our issues and realizing that others are out there that have the same medical problems with our health. We are not alone. Please continue to look at the bright side of your life and not what has been lost. The past is not going to change, it is gone. It's the present and future of our lives and others that we need to concentrate on.
Hey everybody I found something. Check this website out. It's about the lawsuit on Lyrica from 2012. consumerist.com/2012/12/12/pfizer-hit-with-43-million-settlement-for-misleading-marketing-of-drugs. Not sure what we should do next. Any ideas? Maybe call FDA or District Attorney's. I also posted this on one of the other Lyrica threads here as there are several going at the same time.
Maybe a new Class action needs to be started against Pfizer for Lyrica.
Well I have had no success in obtaining a lawyer who will start a class action in Ontario because I am over the statute of limitations. However those of you that are aware of the TV show W5 I have sent in an email asking them to investigate Pfizer and Lyrica. Maybe this will help get the word out of the reporters run with it. Anything helps.
Praying for those of you that are still being affected by this nasty drug! Lots of prayers being sent your way!!
Hi Kez, just wondering how you went? My daughter died 2 months ago and one of the meds she was on was Lyrica. She had suicidal ideation but had never before attempted to take her life.
Not sure if this is helpful or if anyone has tried this law firm but here is what I found:
"The Schmidt Firm, PLLC is currently accepting Lyrica induced injury cases in all 50 states. If you or somebody you know has been injured, you should contact our lawyers immediately for a free case consultation. To contact our Defective Drug Litigation Group call toll free 24 hours a day at (866) 920-0753."
I can't do anything as I'm from Canada and past our Statute of Limitations.
Good luck!
