Serizone Health Risk
Several class action lawsuit have been filed against Bristol-Myers Squibb, the maker of Serzone for liver damage and failure to alert consumers of these risks.
Case Background
Serzone is a popular drug used to treat depression. While Serzone may be effective helping treat psychological problems, it may also cause very serious physical side effects. The Canadian government first issued a health warning in July 2001. Bristol Myers removed Serzone from the market on May 20, 2004.
Serzone has been selling for over 10 years and has generated enormous profits for Bristol Myers. If these profits have been made while Bristol Myers was aware of potential health risks, then the company faces potential liability and may have to compensate those who have taken this drug.
Health Risks & Symptoms
The liver cleans toxins from the bloodstream and the use of Serzone appears to eventually damage the liver. Symptoms from Serzone use will be similar to common signs of liver damage. If you show any of these health effects you should immediately contact your doctor.
The most common related problems with Serzone are:
- Yellow skin or eyes
- Stomach area pain & swelling
- Nausea
- Dark urine
- Loss of appetite
