The FDA has issued an alert on this drug. The Trasylol warning was issued as a result of the NEJM-published study. If you are scheduled for CABG surgery, or your physician is recommending it for you, discuss the possible use of Trasylol and side effects, such as Trasylol kidney failure, Trasylol stroke, Trasylol encephalopathy, or Trasylol heart attack, with your physician and/or surgeon, the possible risks to your health, and safer alternatives. If you have had CABG surgery in the past and believe you were injured by the use of Trasylol, you may be entitled to recover damages for your injury.
