Designed to help cigarette smokers break their habit, Chantix, also known by the brand name of Champix, is now known to cause serious side effects.
In November 2007, the FDA revealed that the side effects of Chantix might even be deadly. While some side effects can be somewhat mild, the drug has been linked to approximately 55 suicides as well as emerging psychological problems in otherwise stable adults.
Some of the more common Chantix side effects include:
- Nausea
- Sleep disturbance (abnormal dreaming)
- Constipation
- Gas
- Vomiting
Depression is yet another symptom of side effects that may be the catalyst of suicidal tendencies in consumers who use the product. Approximately 400 users of the drug were said to display the suicidal side effects of upon use of the product, when prior tendencies had not been displayed.
It may even cause people who were otherwise emotionally healthy to display behavioral changes within a few days to a few weeks after usage of the drug.
The drug also exacerbates pre-existing psychiatric conditions.
These alarming statistics have caused the FDA to issue a health advisory. As reports continue to pour in, there could even be a recall.
If you or someone you know has been using the drug and have suffered from related Chantix side effects, seek the aid of medical professionals. After a through evaluation, your next call should be to a qualified Chantix lawyer.
A Chantix lawyer can help you go over the legalities of your case and advise you in the proper steps to take towards filing a Chantix lawsuit.
A lawsuit is your ticket towards getting the appropriate reparation for the mental anguish associated with the side effects. Not only are people who have been personally harmed by the side effects capable of filing a Chantix lawsuit, so are the families who have lost a loved one to suicide due to usage.
Hiring the right lawyer is critical to your case and can make all the difference in court. Be sure to find a lawyer who has been successful with medical product liability cases in the past. Also, make sure the attorney has you and your family's best interests at heart.
You'll need quality medical attention when Chantix side effects cause irreparable harm. Allow a successful Chantix lawyer to file a lawsuit on your behalf so you can receive the money you need to get your life back.
