MORE DEATHS RESULTING FROM HEPARIN; CONTACT A CALIFORNIA HEPARIN LAWYER NOW

Heparin is a generic blood thinning drug that is primarily used in surgeries. However, more than 40 lawsuits have been filed against the manufacturers of this drug because the drug contains a contamination and that contamination may unfortunately lead to death. The contamination of the drug was linked to a supplier in China because the supplier did not use the actual ingredient that it was supposed to use but instead used a cheaper version that just looked like the actual ingredient. This causes the drug to not function like a regular blood thinner. During the last six months, Baxter International Inc. and a dozen other companies have recalled this drug.

There have been deaths that occurred due to a sudden drop in blood pressure and there have also been side effects such as allergic reactions. Due to the recent cases involving defective products against China, Heparin lawsuits might have more success than other cases involving other drugs who were manufactured elsewhere.
