Rochester, New York (NY) - Accutane Lawyer Helping Dangerous Drug Victims

Accutane is an acne medication surrounded by controversy due to the serious risk of side effects, including suicide. The FDA warns physicians prescribing Accutane to be aware of any signs of depression in their patients.

Accutane side effects have resulted in a high number of deaths and serious health complications. In the United States alone, there have been an estimated 5 million Accutane patients. Many of these patients suffered side effects including psychiatric disorders, birth defects, possibly inflammatory bowel disease, and lupus. Accutane lawsuits filed have alleged that Hoffmann-La Roche, the manufacturer, has been trying to cover up the severity of Accutane side effects over the years in order to maximize profitability for the company.

The FDA reported that Hoffmann-La Roche failed to willingly disclose Accutane side effects. In addition, they did not develop a program to educate female Accutane patients concerning the side effects. These side effects include birth defects and even fetal death if pregnant while using Accutane.

If you or loved one have been injured as a result of taking the above drug, you may have a valid claim. Contact Cellino & Barnes at 1-800-483-2050 or click on an  Accutane Attorney .
