Bextra


FAQs

My 68-year-old mother has a history of ulcers, but she hadn’t had one in several years when her doctor prescribed Bextra for her osteoarthritis. She has since developed a bleeding ulcer and has had to be hospitalized. The label warned about possible ulcers, but my mother ignored it since she trusts her physician. Who is responsible for her pain and suffering?

I took Bextra for 4 months before it was pulled from the market. In the last few weeks while I was still taking it, I began suffering from blisters in my mouth and nose, swollen eyelids, and red splotches on my skin. My doctor thought it was allergy-related and told me to take Benadryl, but said nothing about Bextra. Now I read that Bextra can cause some severe skin problems that could even be fatal. Can I collect damages from the manufacturer? What is my doctor’s responsibility?
