Class action

In 1980’s Hoffman-La Roche developed a new drug, which treated severe acne, which
generally was non-responding to antibiotic treatments. It was considered as the magic,
which works wonder on acne. It was prescribed to millions worldwide, which made it the
largest selling drug. However, the scenario changed when its side effects shown its
existence on the people. The side effects were terrible like birth defect to the
user’s children, miscarriages, Crohn’s diseases, and ulcerative colitis. To add
to this, many people committed suicide, some suffered from psychological disorders and
inabilities while they were on the Accutane. Hoffman-La-Roche was aware of the benefits of
using Accutane but what he lacked was to know about its side effects. Then FDA forced him
to make Accutane warning and its side effects labels, so that users can think before using
the product, whether they want to use it or not.

As Hoffman gave the benefits of using the product only on the label of the product, the
users thought that there were no side effects of this product. However, it was unfortunate
for the Accutane users that they came to know about the side effects of Accutane when they
experienced them. If you are someone who is taking Accutane, if you belong to a family
where someone is using the product or have friend who is taking Accutane and facing its
side effects, then be careful and contact your doctor. Now you can file case and fight
legally for you, your family and friend.
