Our experienced product liability lawyers are investigating potential OXBRYTA lawsuits against the manufacturer Pfizer for failing to warn about these risks. Have you or a loved one suffered severe complications like stroke, organ failure, or death after taking the sickle cell drug OXBRYTA (Voxelotor)? Complete our online form for a free case evaluation.
On September 26, 2024, Pfizer voluntarily recalled OXBRYTA globally due to clinical data showing an increased risk of Vaso-occlusive crises (VOCs), stroke, organ failure or death. The FDA and European Medicines Agency (EMA) have advised all patients to immediately stop using OXBRYTA. If you took this drug and suffered any of these severe side effects, you may be entitled to compensation through an OXBRYTA lawsuit. Our attorneys are ready to assist and will help you to understand your legal options.
OXBRYTA (voxelotor) is a drug intended to treat sickle cell disease by reducing the sickling and breakdown of red blood cells. It was fast-tracked through the FDA approval process in 2019 for adults and children 12 and older. In 2021, approval was extended to ages 4-11. However, post-marketing studies and real-world data uncovered unacceptably high rates of life-threatening complications compared to placebo groups.
In addition to common side effects like headache, diarrhea, and fatigue, OXBRYTA has now been linked to an increased occurrence of:
– Vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) / sickle cell crisis
– Acute chest syndrome (ACS)
– Splenic pooling & spleen removal
– Stroke
– Kidney failure
– Arthritis
– Death
You may be eligible for compensation through an OXBRYTA injury lawsuit if you or a family member:
– Took OXBRYTA for sickle cell disease
– Suffered severe complications like VOCs, stroke, organ damage, or death
– Required hospitalization for pain crises or ACS
– Had to undergo a splenectomy
– Lost a loved one who took OXBRYTA
