Every year, thousands of Americans are diagnosed with kidney damage. While some cases are attributed to aging and natural causes, there is a disturbing trend in recent history involving recalled pharmaceuticals and kidney damage. Improperly tested pharmaceuticals like Vioxx, Baycol, and Crestor have both been recalled due to harmful effects discovered only after they had been put on the market and available to the public.
Pharmaceutical side-effects are a major concern in the medical community. Oftentimes a medication that may help one organ or system may hinder another. Toxic injury of kidneys due to pharmaceuticals is a common occurrence; so much so that various pharmaceutical companies have had to recall certain prescription drugs to prevent further damage to consumers.
Failure to diagnose a condition can also be the cause of kidney damage. Medical misdiagnosis may result in traumatic injury of the kidneys in hospital patients. If you are concerned your kidney damage may have been caused by pharmaceutical negligence, you must consult with an attorney as soon as possible so you can evaluate a plan of action against those that are responsible for your condition.
