Have Their Been Any Lawsuits Filed Over Fen-Phen?
Since fenfluramine and dexfenfluramine were pulled from the market, hundreds of former fen-phen patients have filed lawsuits against the drugs’ manufacturers, including a nationwide class action suit that was settled and received judicial approval in January 2002. If you or a loved one have suffered illness or injury as a result of fen-phen drug use, your rights may be impacted by the nationwide class action or by other legal proceedings related to fen-phen. But you may still be entitled to file a lawsuit for any harm caused by fen-phen drug use, especially if your health problems or risks were discovered only recently. The best way to ensure that your legal rights are protected is to contact an attorney, who will consider your case and explain your options.
