Accutane isn’t the only defective acne drug that can harm Americans. Amnesteem, a generic brand of Accutane, also can be dangerous, as can be Claravis and Sotret, two other forms of generic Accutane. All can cause inflammatory bowel disease or IBD, such as Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis, which can necessitate removing the colon.
In short, you need not have taken Accutane to be eligible for an Accutane lawsuit to recover financial damages for an Accutane injury. You also may have taken a form of generic Accutane such as Amnesteem, Sotret or Claravis.
Those generic brands of the acne medication arose after the patent for Accutane ran out for Accutane’s manufacturer, Roche Pharmaceuticals. This occurred in 2002, 20 years after Roche introduced Accutane to the world, then proceeded to make billions of dollars from its defective drug.
But generic Accutane such as Amnesteem can do damage just as readily. In fact, Amnesteem, like Accutane, has a “black box” warning on its packaging, courtesy of the Food and Drug Administration. And like Accutane, Amnesteem can cause a variety of harmful acne drug side effects, the worst of which may be Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis.
If an Accutane or Amnesteem injury has been the case for you or a family member, you have an alternative. Your IBD may be incurable -- only treatable -- but the economic setbacks you’ve endured as a result can be placed on the manufacturer whose negligence caused your injury.
Recovering financially may mean pursuing an Amnesteem or Accutane lawsuit to seek monetary compensation. Such an Accutane lawsuit can seek such compensation for medical bills, lost salary and your pain and suffering as a result of the personal injury.
