LegalView Highlights Top Brain Injury Rehabilitation Hospitals in the United States - 5.3 Million Americans Suffer from TBI

Date:8/26/2008

rmaceutical controversies, such as the Avandia dangers, and medical device manufacturing defects, including the Zimmer Durom cup. Avandia is a prescription drug used to treat type 2 diabetes, a growing epidemic in the United States, according to researchers from the American Diabetes Association who have estimated that more than 23 million Americans are living with some type of diabetic condition. Avandia, however, has been associated with several serious risks. Among the http://avandia.legalview.com [Avandia side effects __title__ Avandia Dangers] are the increased risk of heart disease and osteoporosis. A study published in the New England Journal of Medicine in mid-2007 cited the risk of severe heart disease among patients consuming Avandia. Since that time the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has added a more severe warning to the drug's label, but has not recalled the medication.

The Zimmer Durom cup, however, is on the brink of a potential recall after hundreds of doctors across the country began submitting complaints that the Zimmer Holdings' hip socket, used as an artificial component in hip replacement surgeries, was failing in many patients and likely leading to an additional hip replacement surgery. Individuals who are among the 12,000 patients to have received the faulty hip socket are advised to not only seek medical assistance immediately, but to contact an experienced medical device law firm to discuss the potential for a http://zimmer-durom-cup.legalview.com [Zimmer Durom cup class action __title__ Zimmer Durom Cup Failure] lawsuit.
