Failures to warn claim

Savannah Georgia medical malpractice attorney


A drug without any manufacturing and design defects may still give rise to a successful lawsuit if the patient was not properly informed of potential adverse events and other risks due to the use of the drug. The nature of instruction and warning claims has been a complex and continually evolving area of product liability law over the past few years. Drug manufacturers generally rely on the “learned intermediary” defense, which protects the manufacturer when it properly warns or informs the physician who prescribes the drug. Recent FDA guidelines may further protect pharmaceutical manufacturers when they fully inform all adverse events to the FDA and comply with labeling regulations. Meanwhile, the “learned intermediary” defense can be eroded when the maker engages in “direct-to-consumer” advertising and may not be taken advantage of by a drug company if the injured party can establish that the warnings on the label were either inadequate or diluted by marketing activity directed to the prescribing physician that encouraged off-label use.
