Vioxx Recall

Vioxx lawsuits could total over 30 Billion dollars over the course of the next few years.This number may seem astronomical, though when compared to the revenue generated from vioxx, it's not. Vioxx sales exceeded 2.5 billion last year. After studies suggested serious side-effects, Vioxx was recalled on September 30, 2004. Consumer activists have argued dangers associated with Vioxx were clear from earlier studies and that company officials downplayed the heart risks. At the time of the Vioxx recall about 2 million people were using it. If you or a loved one have taken Vioxx, you may want to contact a vioxx attorney to see how to proceed.
