Dangerous Pharmaceutical Drugs .
Georgia Product Liability Attorneys.
With the passage of the Prescription Drug User Fee Act
administered by the Food and Drug Administration, the
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) began placing many
pharmaceutical drugs on a fast-track to approval. In
addition, rules have been relaxed allowing
pharmaceuticals companies to advertise directly to
consumers. The faster the drugs enter the marketplace,
the less time drug companies and government officials
have to fully investigate the side effects of consuming
the drugs.
While the pharmaceutical manufacturers have garnered
increasing profits for their drugs,
consumer safety has proportionally decreased. The
combination of many new pharmaceuticals and
over-the-counter drugs with fast approval has
significantly increased the number of serious injuries
to consumers. This has lead to increased numbers of
dangerous drugs such as Vioxx, Bextra, Celebrex,
Crestor, Yaz/Yasmin, Avandia, Reglan, Fosamax, Accutane,
Dilantin, Osmoprep and DePuy hip and Zocor, being prescribed to millions of
Americans.

dedication, and resources to assure successfully to take
