Baycol
On August 8, 2001, Bayer
Pharmaceuticals withdrew the cholesterol lowering drug BAYCOL from the market
because of its toxic side effects. Officials at the FDA report that 31 people
have died of complications of severe muscle breakdown after taking BAYCOL. Symptoms
of BAYCOL toxicity include muscle pain, weakness, tenderness, malaise, fever,
dark urine, nausea, and vomiting which can lead to kidney failure and other
organ failure.
If you or a loved one is in need of legal assistance, call or submit an online
questionnaire. The initial consultation is free of charge, and if we agree
to handle your case, in most cases we will work on a contingency fee basis,
which means we get paid for our services only if there is a monetary recovery
of funds. In many cases, a lawsuit must be filed before an applicable expiration
date, known as a statute of limitations. Please call right away to ensure that
you do not waive your right to possible compensation.
