Dangerous drugs and medical devices may cause harm through design flaws, labeling gaps, or manufacturing errors, creating grounds for liability.
Key steps include documenting injuries, identifying liable parties, reviewing regulatory compliance, and pursuing compensation through settlements or, if needed, court actions.
This glossary defines common terms used in dangerous drug and medical device cases.
A product is defectively designed when safer alternatives were available and the design creates an unreasonable risk.
Labels that fail to warn about risks or provide incomplete information can create liability for makers and sellers.
Failure to warn means important safety information was not provided to doctors or patients.
