PPI Lawsuit Information

The Proton Pump Inhibitor (PPI) mass tort litigation is a significant legal battle against the manufacturers of widely-used PPI drugs like Nexium, Priosec, Prevacid, Prilosec, Protonix, and Dexilant. These lawsuits have surged as plaintiffs allege severe health injuries due to the usage of these medications. The central argument is that PPIs are defective, unreasonably dangerous, and have been marketed without adequate warnings of the risks. This legal action represents one of the largest mass tort litigations in the United States, with all federal cases centralized in New Jersey for pretrial proceedings. If you or a loved one has been affected by the use of PPIs, it is crucial to understand your rights and the ongoing legal proceedings.

Proton Pump Inhibitors, intended to reduce gastric acid, have been linked to serious health complications. Plaintiffs in these cases report suffering from chronic kidney disease (CKD), acute interstitial nephritis, end-stage renal disease, and kidney failure. These allegations point to a significant health risk posed by PPIs, far beyond their intended therapeutic effects. The lawsuits claim negligence on part of the manufacturers in failing to warn consumers about these severe risks adequately. With over 15,000 active lawsuits, the extent of the issue is vast, highlighting the need for affected individuals to come forward.
