Earlier this month, the U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation announced the consolidation of federal Xarelto lawsuits in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana. The announcement, made on December 12, is considered a turning point in nationwide litigation involving the popular blood-thinner, which has been linked to a number of injuries and deaths. Judge Eldon E. Fallon will preside over the MDL proceedings.
Understanding Xarelto Injury Lawsuits
Xarelto is a blood-thinner medication manufactured by Bayer and Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen Unit. In recent years, Xarelto has been associated with cases of severe and uncontrollable bleeding, and is alleged to have caused instances of injury and death among patients.
If you or a family member has experienced harm after taking Xarelto, you may be able to pursue financial compensation for your losses by filing a lawsuit. With the consolidation of Xarelto lawsuits nationwide, more victims and families across the nation will now have the resources to hold Xarelto’s manufacturers liable for the harm they caused.
You or a loved one may be able to file a Xarelto lawsuit if you experienced any of the following after taking the medication:
Uncontrollable bleeding
Subdural hemorrhaging
Internal bleeding
Hospitalization
Serious injury / wrongful death.
