Lyrica Lawsuit (Page 64) (Top voted first)
UpdatedDoes anyone know if there is an ongoing lawsuit against the company who puts out Lyrica? I am a mess from it. Do we have a leg to stand on when it comes to the side effects they found out from people like us? I am a long termer. I have been taking 900 mg since 2005. Is there anyone representing us? Thank you
Hi Melinda , thanks for your support , hope all is well with you .
I hope I continue to stay mostly side effect free also. I hope you all find relief soon.
Yes there is a class action suit for Lyrica. You can access it at rotlaw.com.
Took Lyrica for nerve pain in legs after a back surgery. Slowly, I began having issues such as blurry vision, leg cramps (horrible) and when I started having all my teeth hurt, I researched it. Sure enough, all were due to Lyrica. My PCP immediately started weaning me. I still have some visual issues, & some teeth still painful at times. See dentist, again, next week. I also have issues w forming thoughts into sentences. Also, Cymbalta gave me blood blisters (rare, but me!) & have one scar on my hand from it. I'll live w the pain. I would like to know how to proceed w an attorney. This stuff has got to be taken off of the market!
On another blog thread, they said the lawyers Rottenstein are looking into it. They also was a blog that someone in Australia found a lawyer who is looklngintp it. Rottenstein wants everyone to call them and tell their story, at least that is what the blog said about lyrica.
Hi, thanks for your information on Rottlaw. Unfortunately, I've been in touch with them twice over the past two or three months and have had absolutely no reply from them. Even a courtesy email would have been something!
Have you had any luck with them yourself? I'd be very interested in following up this avenue.
Thanks again,
Mel
Hi Mary ,What you said about Lyrica destroying nerves is really frightening , i am very grieved about what this FDA sanctioned poison has done to my son who will obviously never recover ....
They won't help me! Any other suggestions????? Thanks!
I have been looking for over a year and no attorney in the US will take Pfizer on over this drug. Pfizer even lied about the number of adverse effects in their clinical trials and the fda fined them over it.
Wondering why my post of yesterday wasn't put on this site?
Sometimes I forget how to turn my car on or how to drive. I have found myself driving around a parking lot just to find the store. I have to write a grocery list even if it is only for2-3 items and then write down where I have want to go while I'm out and about.
:-(
Sorry to hear that Margie. I'm scheduled to go to the leg vein clinic soon. I now have spider veins and varicose veins. My teeth are crooked and I am scheduled to see an orthodontist for braces. I'm 63 yrs old. Go to this site:
fda.gov/iceci/criminalinvestigations/ucm269241.htm
It's the Food and Drug Administration Office of Criminal Investigations. I had depression because of this drug. I had cataracts, lenses put in, now blurry vision that moves around in both eyes. I stopped taking Lyrica one and a half years ago. Can't see clear. Was on Lyrica for 3 yrs. 50 mg 2 x day. My life is messed up also from this drug. Pfizer was to pay $2.3 Billion to the FDA, largest lawsuit in history.
Wow, Margie! That doc shouldn't even be allowed to practice medicine! As a patient and nurse, I'd tell you to file a complaint with the state board. I knew immediately what your issue was or assumed from many years of practice and I'm not an MD. Bless your heart, literally. I keep looking for help all over the net but only came upon the rot. com from another blogger. All the best to you.
Ellie May, i believe there is more than enough case study's on this site alone to warrant legal action or an investigation into this terrible drug Lyrica
Thank you Ellie mae and Janet! I just think it's sad that all of us have to suffer like this because of a poll we took thinking it was going to make our day to day living easier..... instead we get all of this MESSSS! I'M SO SADDENED.
You are correct ! Now, someone who can help needs to stand up for those who have suffered.
Dear Mary, there is no statutue of limitation for this type of harm.
I have been fighting since 2008. In Feb 2014 the prescriber data has changed by one third as a result. There are more changes to follow.....
Faron , which country are you in and if not from Australia ,are you able to represent us here as well ? my son has suffered terribly because of this horror drug and at 21 years of age still continues to do so , he has not had a dose of lyrica for just over 4 years, but still suffers memory problems and anxiety disorder that he had absolutely no sign of before he took lyrica , the transformation from a very sharp .alert memory and the ability to handle complex mathematics to having great difficulty remembering what happened yesterday was so instant and dramatic we could instantly see what the lyrica had done ......
lyrica causes a lot of harm very quickly and permanently even at the lowest doses ...
