What You Need to Know About Zocor Lawsuits
Zocor has been introduced as an effective drug for lowering LDL (bad) cholesterol levels and triglicerides, while increasing HDL (good) cholesterol levels. It has also been used to lower the risk of heart attack and strokes in diabetics.
Unfortunately, side effects have begun to arise as more data has become available regarding the use of 80mg Zocor. In June 2011, the FDA warned users that Zocor may cause muscle injury or myopathy. FDA research has found that 5 out of 100,000 people taking Zocor have experienced negative side effects.
Now legal action is being organized against the manufacturers of Zocor for their failure to adequately warn patients of the dangerous side effects. Read on for more information to determine if you are eligible to be part of the lawsuit.
