Do You Have a Paxil Lawsuit?
Glaxo Said to Have Paid $1 Billion Over Paxil Suits
Tracey Law Firm - Houston, Texas
In 1992, pharmaceutical giant SmithKline Beecham (now Glaxo SmithKline) introduced a new drug named Paxil - a drug which they said was remarkably effective in the treatment of depression or anxiety disorders. They also said it was safe. We now know that they lied.
Glaxo SmithKline knew, more than a decade ago, that Paxil posed a serious risk of birth defects if taken during pregnancy. They knew it and they said nothing about it, gave no warning, and put it out there on the market anyway. Unfortunately, stories like this are nothing new in the profit-rich world of pharmaceutical drugs .
