Taking any medication or using any pharmaceutical device comes with certain risks. However, patients can reasonably expect that they are fully informed of the risks of a product that they are using and they expect that pharmaceutical companies and drug companies will have done adequate testing to ensure that the product is safe. Patients also have a right to expect that federal agencies will take steps to ensure that the drugs and devices released to the public are safe to use and effective. Unfortunately, not all companies take these necessary steps to offer safe products. When patients are injured due to unsafe medical devices and medications, drug injury claims and medical malpractice claims in Miramar and other Florida communities often result.
The attorneys at Flaxman Law Group have seen firsthand the ways that pharmaceutical device manufacturers sometimes do not disclose all the information about a pharmaceutical device or drug. In some cases, drug companies actively cover up information about known problems with their product. There is simply no excuse for this and the attorneys at Flaxman Law Group believe that everything should be done to hold these negligent companies responsible for any injuries that they cause.

Why Are Unsafe Drugs Sold to Patients?The FDA and federal government have rules in place that require pharmaceutical companies and drug manufacturers to test products carefully. However, thousands of medical devices and drugs are released into the public every year, and government agencies are simply unable to keep up and test each item. In addition, pharmaceutical companies and drug companies are often very competitive environment and the concern is often to be profitable and to promote new products. Unfortunately, the situation can mean that dangerous drugs make it to the marketplace without adequate testing and without adequate information for patients.
