Individuals can also learn about the details of developing an Avandia case .

Avandia, also known as rosiglitazone maleate, is as thiazolidinedione anti-diabetic prescription drug that was introduced to the market in May 1999 from GlaxoSmithKline. However, reports have surfaced recently linking the use of Avandia to severe side effects that may include an increased risk of heart attack as well as an increased risk of bone fractures and early onset osteoporosis. Individuals who are currently taking Avandia or who have taken it in the past and suffer from these or other side effects should contact an experienced Avandia lawyer for legal consultation on developing a potential Avandia lawsuit .

Several studies within the last few years have surfaced, citing the increased risk associated with these side effects including one study conducted by Swiss researchers who used medical records of diabetic patients over a ten-year period. It is advisable for a patient of this drug to seek out an experienced Avandia law firm where an Avandia attorney can provide sound advice on pharmaceutical litigation.

While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has yet to fully address the alleged Avandia risks with a recall, LegalView continues to offer resources for patients of Avandia affected by the adverse effects of the drug. Additionally, LegalView also provides resources on several other pharmaceutical drugs that have created a stir among in the news for the potential risks; such drugs include Singulair, Chantix and Levaquin.

Singulair is an asthma medication that can also be used to treat severe allergy symptoms. The medication is prescribed to individuals of all ages including children. It was announced in March 2008 that the FDA would be investigating the prescription drug because of increasing reports from patients that the drug was causing strange behavioral changes including suicidal thoughts and tendencies. The Singulair side effects also remain similar to that of the smoking cession drug Chantix. The Chantix risks , which began to surface in November 2007, consisted of those similar to Singulair, including depression, moodiness, erratic behavior and suicidal thoughts and actions.

Levaquin, also known as levofloxacin, is a prescription antibiotic drug used to treat a list of bacterial infections ranging from pneumonia to bronchitis to skin infections.
