subject: Former Patients Are Reaching Out For Advice From A Credible Paxil Lawyer [print this page] It's now common for a former female Paxil patient to learn that her use of the antidepressant while pregnant was likely what caused her child to be born with a severe birth defect. Paxil was first released in 1992 and quickly became one of the most commonly prescribed and widely used antidepressants on the market. Unfortunately it wasn't until 2005 that patients were warned of dangers of using the medication during pregnancy meaning that for well over a decade, women were unknowingly risking their child's health. Had they known that their continued use of the drug resulted in children being born with Paxil birth defects like patent foramen ovale, spina bifida, transposition of the great arteries, clubbed foot, spina bifida and more, they would have chosen another way to treat their behavioral disorders.
These victims now want to know if they have any legal options that they can take in order to hold GlaxoSmithKline accountable. They are finding that others in their situation have had success when pursuing a prescription drug lawsuit with the help of an experienced Paxil lawsuit. Recent Paxil lawsuits have been won by former patients, which has resulted in GlaxoSmithKline being forced to financially compensate them for the medical bills they've incurred.
