On August 8, 2001, Bayer Pharmaceuticals withdrew the
cholesterol lowering drug BAYCOL from the market
because of its toxic side effects. Officials at the
FDA reported that 31 people have died of complications
of severe muscle breakdown after taking Baycol.
Symptoms of BAYCOL toxicity include muscle pain,
weakness, tenderness, malaise, fever, dark urine,
nausea, and vomiting which can lead to kidney failure
and other organ failure.
If you or a loved one has suffered an injury as a
result of Baycol, call Attorneys911
at our toll free number, (800) 300-0001 or submit
an online questionnaire. The initial consultation
is free of charge, and if we agree to handle your
case, we will work on a contingency fee basis
(excludes Criminal Cases), which means we get paid for
our services only if there is a monetary recovery of
funds. In many cases a lawsuit must be filed before an
applicable expiration date, known as a statute of
limitations so please call right away to ensure that
you do not waive your right to possible compensation.
