Blame It On The Drug: Stevens-Johnson Syndrome

Chances are if you are reading this blog either you or someone you know has been adversely affected by Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) or its elevated equivalent Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN). It is a often times deadly reaction, usually linked to the recent use of a sulfa containing medication, that affects far too many consumers in the U.S. and throughout the world. Anywhere from 3-15% of those who develop SJS or TEN die from the event.

If you or a loved one has developed SJS or TEN as a result of a dangerous drug know that you are not alone. Many sites devoted to helping those affected by its onset, like the Steven Johnson Syndrome Foundation, is a great source for information and support.  In addition, my law firm is currently pursuing numerous claims involving those who have been adversely affected by SJS and TEN. If you or a loved have developed SJS or TEN, I urge you to contact an attorney immediately to protect your rights. It is time once and for all to show the big drug manufactures it is time to stop putting profits of over the safety of people. I can help so give me a call.
