Byetta and Kidney Damage: Our Lawyers Are Reviewing Cases Involving Kidney Failure

As a defective drug lawyer and scientist, I have a special interest in defective drug litigation. The FDA reported Byetta (exenatide), a drug manufactured by Amylin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Eli Lilly and Company, prescribed to treat type 2 diabetes may pose serious kidney problems to patients. byetta_product_pensboxes_web1.jpg

Our Byetta lawyers are currently reviewing cases to determine if patients hurt by this drug are entitled to have their medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering compensated. Where death has occurred, we will determine if the family members have a cause of action for wrongful death against this drug's manufacturers.

As a lawyer, I have a unique background that allows me to effectively handle defective drug cases. I am a trained biologist and chemist, turned lawyer. I personally review each and every case to determine if you or your family have a cause of action and do so free of charge.

It is extremely troublesome when a drug manufacturer hides known complications or side effects about the drugs it manufactures. We have seen this time and time again with numerous other drugs. It is unknown at this point what Byetta manufacturers knew prior to this press release. From here forward, Byetta will have a different label, which will specifically address the risk for kidney problems.

So far, many Byetta kidney failure / damage cases reviewed by the FDA have caused serious concern. It has been reported the damage caused by this drug may not improve if Byetta is stopped, indicating the damage may be permanent in some patients.

My Missouri-based personal injury law firm is reviewing Byetta cases nationwide and can help you no matter where you live.
