Mr. Trotz has handled personal injury cases involving car accidents, trucking accidents, slip and fall, premises liability, and negligent security. Each and every day, Mr. Trotz represents those who have been injured through no fault of their own, and many of his clients have sustained traumatic, catastrophic and life-altering injuries.
Invokana (canagliflozin) is an SGLT2 inhibitor prescribed to adults with Type 2 diabetes. Patients are told that combined with exercise and diet, Invokana (or Invokamet) can lower blood sugar and glycemic control. The drug received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2013. It is manufactured by Jansenn Pharmaceuticals, a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson. Across the United States, lawsuits have been filed against these companies alleging they failed to warn patients of risks of using this dangerous drug such as kidney failure, lower limb amputations, ketoacidosis, and heart attacks. If you or a loved one used this drug and developed an unforeseen injury, call the Invokana lawyers of Nahon, Saharovich & Trotz.
The FDA has warned that Invokana “may lead to ketoacidosis, a serious condition… that may require hospitalization.” Common symptoms of ketoacidosis include vomiting, muscle aches, headaches, and rapid breathing, among other symptoms. If left untreated, ketoacidosis can result in diabetic comas or death. In some cases, patients who took Invokana required hospitalization due to kidney failure resulting from their use of the medication.
The FDA has issued several public warnings regarding Invokana in recent years, as the Invokana attorneys at our Memphis firm are aware.
Diabetic patients who suffered injuries related to Invokana use may be able to recover financial compensation including medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, and emotional distress. If the victim passed away, wrongful death damages may be recovered. Each state has its own laws relating to statutes of limitation and repose, making it critical to consult an Invokana lawyer in the Memphis area as soon as possible. Failure to abide by these laws may bar you from recovering any compensation at all.
Big pharmaceutical companies rarely admit they intentionally deceived consumers or created dangerous drugs. Whenever injury claims are made against them, they tend to devote significant resources towards defending them. If you or a loved one took Invokana and suffered ketoacidosis, kidney injury, an amputated leg, foot, or toe, or another type of injury, call Nahon, Saharovich & Trotz today. Our Invokana attorneys can investigate your case and consult with experts as needed. To schedule a free consultation, call 800-529-4004 or complete our online form.
