Liver Transplant Mass Tort Lawsuit Attorney

The Law Offices of Joseph R. Santoli concentrate in representing clients nation-wide that have been injured or whose children have been injured as a result of taking Zmax®, Zpack, Zithromax®, or other prescription drugs.

This office is currently representing those who required a liver transplant following use of Hydroxycut.

This office is reviewing several different sources of liver failure and will address inquiries regarding antibiotics such as Zithromax as well as those related to other suspected causes.

The FDA and the case of Ketek

Zithromax® (Azithromycin), sometimes called the Z-pack®, is a highly popular and highly potent antibiotic sold by Pfizer. Zithromax® can cause severe liver damage and liver failure resulting in death or requiring a liver transplant after very few doses due to its potency. This is reflected in the fact that it is usually dispensed in a short term (three day and five day) titration pack with far fewer individual doses than other antibiotics. It is for treatment of mild to moderate infections and is often taken as one pill per day. Z-pack has been re-designed to be a one day dosage antibiotic now called Zmax.

Common symptoms of liver damage are:
         Yellow eyes
         Jaundice
         Nausea
         Abdominal pain
         Clay-colored stool
         Dark urine

We are concentrating on reviewing liver transplant matters. A liver transplant is the replacement of the liver as required by liver failure in the recipient. Liver failure leading to liver transplant can follow can ingestion of Zithromax® or result from several other sources.
