SJS Legal Rights
Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) is an auto-immune, exfoliative disorder of the skin typically caused as a result of an allergic reaction to antibiotics, anticonvulsants and/or pain relievers; Bextra, Advil, Celebrex, Motrin and Ibuprofen are all known to be capable of causing Stevens-Johnson Syndrome. In addition to causing SJS, such drugs are also capable of causing a more severe, life-threatening skin condition known as toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). Adverse drug reactions are the fourth leading cause of death in America. Large pharmaceutical companies have a responsibility to ensure that all the proper warnings are provided regarding any side effects (SJS, TEN, etc.) or dangers associated with the use of their drugs.
The lawyers and staff of Levin Papantonio are experienced in dealing with litigation involving adverse drug reactions. If you or a loved one has contracted SJS or TEN, then it is possible that you are eligible for compensation from a liable drug manufacturer.
