Health Canada has received a total number of 61 patients that have been reported to have experienced liver-related harmful effects while they were taking Xarelto although this can not be actually pointed out because of the fact that there isn’t a clear cause-and-effect relationship between the drug and the symptoms. In addition to this, in the World Health Organization’s data there have been around 431 liver injury cases documented and 23 of those do not take any other medications other than Xarelto.

Lake Forest, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/26/2015 -- Xarelto or the Rivaroxaban which is one of what is said to be the latest and best alternative anticoagulant medication in the market today has been reviewed just recently by Health Canada in terms of its safety. However, the safety review summary released last August 26 this year investigated Xarelto in two separate studies and was found out to be linked in the development of liver injury in the 16 subjects. The purpose of the research conducted by the department was focused on the possibilities of Xarelto increasing the risk for liver problems and injuries. However, they could not arrive at a conclusion to this hypothesis because some of the documentation contains incomplete information. But because of the allegations and controversial issues that Xarelto is being involved at, Health Canada decided to further study the drug and asked professional health care providers as well as the patients using Xarelto to document and report any incidences of liver injuries that could possibly be related to the anticoagulant drug being investigated.

However, during liver damage the use of Xarelto to treat these medical conditions, there have been a vast number of reports that the anticoagulant medication has been increasing the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding which have led to fatal complications and to some patients, death has been the worst outcome.

As per documentation from the two separate studies that have raised the red flag on the use of Xarelto being the cause of liver damage and injury, here are the findings:

In the JAMA Internal Medicine Journal, two (2) patients have been reported to develop serious liver damage during the intake of Xarelto and this is manifested by the extremely elevated transaminase activity levels as well as hyperbilirubinemia. However, these patients have recovered quickly after the use of Xarelto has been stopped. The authors of the study revealed that from the year 3008 and 2013, there have been 42 cases of liver injury possibly due to the Xarelto treatment and this has also been reported to the Swiss Agency of Therapeutic Products. And as a conclusion to the research, severe symptomatic liver injury is associated with the use of Rivaroxaban.

In the Journal of Hepatology, the second study about the use of Xarelto and its association with developing liver damage or injury has been published and there have been 14 reported cases. In this study, there has been a substantial number of hepatic adverse reactions in patients and the use of Xarelto has been the suspected cause. However, the authors have recommended further studies to be conducted and advised physicians to observe symptoms of liver damage and injury in patients taking Rivaroxaban.

As a summary, Health Canada has received a total number of 61 patients that have been reported to have experienced liver-related harmful effects while they were taking Xarelto although this can not be actually pointed out because of the fact that there isn't a clear cause-and-effect relationship between the drug and the symptoms. In addition to this, in the World Health Organization's data there have been around 431 liver injury cases documented and 23 of those do not take any other medications other than Xarelto.

One of the latest lawsuits filed against the manufacturers and distributors of Xarelto was filed just lately in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. As a matter of fact, Pennsylvania is the very first to make allegations against the Drug that is absolutely ineffective and useless in preventing ischemic strokes and that the drug may actually be the one to cause it especially in patients who have been found out to have atrial fibrillation even in the prescribed once a day dosage.

Lake Forest, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/26/2015 -- There have been so many allegations that have been coming out that what Janssen Pharmaceuticals and Bayer Health Care claim to be the newest wonder anticoagulant drug; Xarelto is not at all effective so they say. In line with this, one of the latest lawsuits filed against the manufacturers and distributors of Xarelto was filed just lately in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. As a matter of fact, Pennsylvania is the very first to make allegations against the Drug that is absolutely ineffective and useless in preventing ischemic strokes and that the drug may actually be the one to cause it especially in patients who have been found out to have atrial fibrillation even in the prescribed once a day dosage.

Xarelto has been approved for distribution and consumption by the Food and Drugs Administration and has been prescribed by many professional health practitioners using the 2 types of preparations or strengths which are the 15 milligrams that can be used 2 times a day and the 20 milligrams used as a single daily dose. Some people have tolerated the 2 times a day frequency. However, since there have been complaints that led to lawsuits that Xarelto causes severe bleeding tendencies, the company marketing this anticoagulant has advised doctors and pharmacists to practice extreme caution when prescribing and dispensing the drug to its users.

All Xarelto lawsuits that have been filed nationwide in various federal courts shall be consolidated in the Eastern District of Louisiana before the respectable Judge Eldon E. Fallon based on the announcement of the United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation. Moreover, several thousands of Xarelto cases are projected to be transferred to the MDL.

All the complaints revolve around the issue that the manufacturers and distributors of Xarelto:

- Failed at warning the general public about the all the possible adverse effects and risks that Xarelto may cause profuse and uncontrolled internal hemorrhage.

- That Johnson and Johnson failed in the formulation of any approved antidote to counteract the effects of this anticoagulant in the event that adverse reactions start to appear in patients.

- That the makers of Xarelto have done false and deceptive claims that the drug is the superior form of anticoagulant and that it is the best alternative for Warfarin, which is then the best of its kind before the launch of Xarelto.

Advisories were released that only in the initial phase of the treatment, that Xarelto has to be taken twice a day by first-time users and the dosage must be strictly adjusted to be taken in a single dose per day to prevent adverse effects. It was just lately that the information was released by the experts behind the manufacturing and distribution of Xarelto; only after there have been massive complaints and cases filed by the Xarelto users and their families.

Bottomline is that Xarelto, being claimed to be the best anticoagulant drug in the market today is facing a substantial number of complaints that have legally been filed against the companies involved in its production and marketing. And up to the present, lawsuits are continuously increasing and is expected to increase further in the near future. Xarelto's effectiveness is also in question at this point because of the incidences that it may actually aggravate certain conditions that have lead to ischemic strokes, profuse bleedings and even death to some of its users.

Taking into consideration the massive volume of prescriptions for Xarelto that have been issued by medical practitioners backed up by recent scientific and clinical research that adverse reactions have been linked to the use of this very promising anticoagulant drug, thousands more complainants are expected to surface in the coming years. And true to the projections and predictions, the number of Xarelto cases is in continuous increase which is why litigations filed federally have been consolidated in an aim to form an MDL or what is known as the Multidistrict Litigation which would be handled by the Honorable Judge Eldon E. Fallon in Louisiana.

Lake Forest, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/21/2015 -- Thousands of people in the United States have filed cases against Johnson and Johnson, Bayer Heath Care and Janssen because of the allegations that Xarelto have been said to cause uncontrolled internal hemorrhages that led to the worsening of patients' conditions leading to life threatening complications and deaths. However, the people who have filed Xarelto Lawsuits have great concerns about the length of time the settlements would take after having formally filed the cases in January 2014.

The court cases filed against Xarelto and all companies that are involved in the manufacture and sales of the drug have been done in state courts and the federal department so that the basis of the complaints may be established. Moreover, the ultimate goal of the litigation process is that due compensation for the pain and sufferings, as well as physical and emotional damages of the plaintiffs, be addressed and awarded lawfully.

Taking into consideration the massive volume of prescriptions for Xarelto that have been issued by medical practitioners backed up by recent scientific and clinical research that adverse reactions have been linked to the use of this very promising anticoagulant drug, thousands more complainants are expected to surface in the coming years. And true to the projections and predictions, the number of Xarelto cases is in continuous increase which is why litigations filed federally have been consolidated in an aim to form an MDL or what is known as the Multidistrict Litigation which would be handled by the Honorable Judge Eldon E. Fallon in Louisiana.

The formation of the MDLs has the basic goal to make the legal process expedite and speed up especially for those people and companies that are involved. By doing this, lawyers would be able to set their mind in organizing the case, preparation for the initial trials and in some instances, settlement talks; but this would still take over a year to accomplish. Bellwether cases are those cases that have been reviewed and are decided to be ready to get into trial, but the Xarelto bellwether cases are expected to commence in 2016, which would take a minimum of 1 month for every lawsuit.

However, settlement negotiations have been predicted to take place in 2016. The defendants would opt to settle the federal cases, but when the cases have not arrived with an agreeable settlement, legal trials will continue.

The Xarelto litigation is still in its infancy stage at this point, this is what Attorney Marc Goldrich has verbalized. He also added that before the case would progress, it would probably take several more years. All those who have used and experienced the grave adverse effects of Xarelto are advised to come forward, seek the help of Xarelto lawyers and fight for their rights to be given due compensation for the losses brought about by the use of Xarelto.

Xarelto was recognized to be a top of the line type of blood thinner because of good reviews it has been receiving. However, after some time, a huge number of patients have been experiencing Xarelto’s gravely serious side effects which include severe internal hemorrhage of the gastrointestinal tract, the brain and other vital organs of the body. Not only did it cause severe bleeding, but there were also reports of events of strokes and even deaths.

Lake Forest, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/19/2015 -- There is wide range of anticoagulant medicines that have been used to treat patients with coagulant problems including those with cardiovascular diseases and other life-threatening medical conditions. However, patients who are using these blood thinners have to have their blood monitored and because of this, patients are required to be admitted to the hospital so that if ever adverse effects appear, antidotes could be given promptly to counteract the effects of the drug. And because the dosage depends on the laboratory results, patients have to be closely monitored as well. Moreover, patients who are taking blood thinners have constraints and dietary restrictions; and this makes it more inconvenient for patients.

Because of these reasons, experts are continuously searching for ways to alleviate these problems; hence the discovery of what Johnson and Johnson and Bayer claims to be a "one size fits all" blood thinner. Because of the deceptive promotional campaigns of these manufacturers that the drug is actually safe, very convenient to use and all its very promising claims that Xarelto is the best anticoagulant in the market today, health care professionals and patients have indulged in its use.

Xarelto was recognized to be a top of the line type of blood thinner because of good reviews it has been receiving. However, after some time, a huge number of patients have been experiencing Xarelto's gravely serious side effects which include severe internal hemorrhage of the gastrointestinal tract, the brain and other vital organs of the body. Not only did it cause severe bleeding, but there were also reports of events of strokes and even deaths. And what's worse is that the makers of Xarelto have not released sufficient information with regards to these side effects and the antidote that could reverse its untoward effects.

Due to the numerous incidences and complaints supported by proper medical documentation, lawsuits have been filed against the company that manufactured and marketed the drug. The initial lawsuits were actually commenced last year during the first half of 2014 and continue to increase up to the present. Trials for the Xarelto case are expected to start approximately during the second half of the year 2016.

And because of the tremendous impact of these lawsuits to the companies involved in the manufacture and marketing of Xarelto, there have been settlements that have been reported between the patients and their families; and these issues have been confirmed. This is is predicted to be likely to happen by the general public.

Even with the settlement offers of the company, Xarelto lawsuits continue to increase reaching around 2,000 and is forecasted to increase further in the coming years. About thousands of patients are still expected to surface anytime soon. Litigation has already taken its first big step before even more cases of settlement negotiations are to be made by the company.

The most crucial of all the allegations received by the companies involved in the production and sale of Xarelto is their failure to perform extensive research regarding the bleeding tendencies involved in its use and because there were no information made known, their failure to warn the general public will make their defense weak and the claims of the Xarelto users even more compelling.

Several counts of negligence were charged because of their alleged deceptive marketing, alleged failure to warn the public about the side effects and alleged pharmaceutical trials misconduct. The court is yet to decide on the fate of the case as more and more patients seek to file their case against the makers and distributors of Xarelto.

Lake Forest, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/18/2015 -- Xarelto, a drug that has been designed to treat coagulation problems by acting as a proven effective blood thinner, has become the focus of the medical practitioners, consumers and most especially the Xarelto lawyers because of the disturbing number of patients who have experienced serious adverse effects that has put the lives of these people at risk; hence the drug has become tremendously controversial.

Being one of the latest innovations in the pharmaceutical industry, the drug is said to have ease of use compared to another well-known blood thinner called Warfarin. Its greatest advantage for patients and medical practitioners alike is that when a patient is being treated with Xarelto would not require regular monitoring unlike the other blood thinners; this is based on their claim that the drug is absolutely safe and effective.

However, based on complaints received from hundreds of Xarelto users, the drug has been linked to the augmented risk of uncontrolled and irreversible bleeding or hemorrhage. This is, of course, the risk posed in most anticoagulant users, but what made it even worse is that unlike other brands of blood thinners, there is no known antidote to reverse the effects of Xarelto. There were incidences that even minor injuries incurred by Xarelto users have resulted to uncontrolled profuse bleeding which are relatively fatal. As a result, hundreds of people have decided to file Xarelto lawsuits against Janssen Pharmaceutical and Bayer Healthcare; the manufacturer and the co-maker of Xarelto.

Even when there have been alleged claims that the drug has fatal side effects that could result to deaths, there has not been any event that the drug has been recalled from the market aside from one incident where 13,500 bottles of the drug were recalled basically because of the issue of contamination in the Puerto Rico plant.

Patients and lawyers advocate filing a Xarelto lawsuit because it is the only way that they could hold the manufacturing company accountable and liable and thereby receive due compensation for emotional and psychological injuries and financial losses because of aggravated medical conditions and prolonged hospital confinement due to Xarelto's adverse reactions.

Several counts of negligence were charged because of their alleged deceptive marketing, alleged failure to warn the public about the side effects and alleged pharmaceutical trials misconduct. The court is yet to decide on the fate of the case as more and more patients seek to file their case against the makers and distributors of Xarelto.

Clinical research misconduct is not a new thing when it comes to seeking approval; and license from the FDA, but with the alarming number of Xarelto users experiencing adverse reactions and untoward side effects from the drug it has compelled people to file their case against the company through a Xarelto lawyer. These lawyers would do everything to assist the patients through the entire legal process so that they may be given due compensation for the harmful effects of the drug.

Lake Forest, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/03/2015 -- While patients and medical health professionals are at a look out for more effective and cost-efficient treatment for various disorders, drug manufacturers have the responsibility to provide the public with facts about the pharmaceutical and clinical trials for every drug and substance that is marketed for public consumption.

And, for one, Xarelto has been labeled as such because of the incidences that brought people to file and join the campaign to file a Xarelto lawsuit against the drug company who manufactured and distributed the drug.

One of the facts that have made Xarelto more controversial is that Charles Seife stated in his study which was published by JAMA Internal Medicine specifically stated the flaws on what and how consumers of this drug obtain information about Xarelto's clinical trials; and that this was done profoundly. With the very vague information that was released about the drug, controversies have become more and more such as the inaccuracy of the records of the trials done on the drug and the provision of false data, deviated pharmaceutical trial protocol, and the failure of those conducting the trial to protect their subjects' safety.

Clinical research misconduct is not a new thing when it comes to seeking approval; and license from the FDA, but with the alarming number of Xarelto users experiencing adverse reactions and untoward side effects from the drug it has compelled people to file their case against the company through a Xarelto lawyer. These lawyers would do everything to assist the patients through the entire legal process so that they may be given due compensation for the harmful effects of the drug.

In the issue brought out by Seife, he questions why the FDA has withheld these gravely serious proofs of drug trial misconduct by the makers and manufacturers of Xarelto; wherein fact they should be protecting the welfare and safety of the patients. However, even if Xarelto has been legally distributed and used for treatment because of its promising effective therapeutic claims, hundreds of lawsuits were filed against Bayer Pharmaceuticals and Janssen.

The case against these companies is basically about their deceptive marketing and their failure to provide the public about the bleeding tendencies that Xarelto may have on its consumers. This has been evidenced by patients being discovered and diagnosed to have cerebral hemorrhage, gastrointestinal bleeding, etc; and for a fact, this has put the lives of the patients who were given the drug in a great risk of fatality. And because Xarelto has no known antidote, the effects of the drug could not easily be reversed.

Another controversy about Xarelto is that unlike other anticoagulants like the Warfarin, the manufacturer has not given any information about the antidote in case the Xarelto side effects take into action.

Lake Forest, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/13/2015 -- The focus on global health issues has become really tremendous as people get wiser and more scrupulous in choosing the products and services, especially when pertaining to health care. One of the most controversial issues that have really captured the attention of a massive number of people is the issues about a famous replacement for Warfarin as a blood thinner agent; the Xarelto.

There have been an immense number of people who have filed legal claims because of the devastating outcomes of the Xarelto side effects to patients who have undergone treatment with the drug. In fact, there have been more or less 430 lawsuits filed against the manufacturer of the drugs. The controversial issue basically revolved around the fact that there have been very promising claims especially how the drug was advertised, however, the promising potentials and effectiveness of the drug has become a blur with all those adverse effects of the drugs on most of its users.

Another controversy about Xarelto is that unlike other anticoagulants like the Warfarin, the manufacturer has not given any information about the antidote in case the Xarelto side effects take into action. And for severe adverse effects, there will be no other way to reverse the effects of the drug. With Xarelto's marketing strategy, the issue of downplaying about the risks of using the drug has also unearthed.

Furthermore, there have also been issues about having to recall around 13,500 bottles of Xarelto because of bacterial contamination found in one sample. As stated on the Food and Drugs enforcement Report, the drug manufacturers confirmed the contamination of the drug after a patient filed his/her complaint. The producers of the drug have voluntarily commenced the nationwide recall of all of the products that came from their plant in Gurabo, Puerto Rico where the said contaminated bottles came from. But actually, the plant was one that has been upgraded by J&J two years ago. The company said that they are very much willing to recall all the 13, 500 bottles of Xarelto to show their commitment to ensuring the quality of their products.

Although Xarelto is still viable in the market, people some people are still in doubt about of the credibility of the products because of its involvement in various controversial issues. But, the fact is that Xarelto continues to be one of the leading anticoagulant medications in the market up to this day.

With the current documentation, there have been a total of 430 patients who have filed the Xarelto lawsuit to at least file for claims for the serious medical health conditions that the use of the drug has resulted into. Some of the worst cases that these complainants had to deal with is severe intestinal and rectal bleeding, intracranial hemorrhage and bleeding in the kidneys.

Lake Forest, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/28/2015 -- Medical health professional practitioners should really be very careful in dealing with patients as misdosage or the choice of drugs to be prescribed to patients because certain substances and medications would greatly affect any human being; hence, this may produce irreversible disabling, serious medical conditions and worse, death.

One of the most recent controversies in the medical and health industry is the use of anticoagulant drugs such as the Xarelto (Rivaroxaban). The primary action of this drug is to prevent increased blood viscosity and clotting because of its anticoagulant effects. This very promising drug has been used to replace other anticoagulants such as the Warfarin or Coumadin because the latter entails very serious monitoring and blood levels of the drug should consistently be checked to prevent untoward effects such as profuse bleeding, arrhythmias, severe headache. Long-term and use of these drugs without proper monitoring and follow-up from the prescribing physician may also cause serious complications such as hypotension, internal hemorrhage from vital organs, loss of consciousness and maybe even death in severe cases.

The use of Xarelto has become very famous because of its very promising marketing claims that the drug promotes better and safer treatments than other well-known branded blood thinners in the market. The inaccuracy in the information, especially about the other possible side effects of Xarelto not being clearly stated and reported to the FDA, seem to be where the problem rooted from; this is why a lot of people are misled to its use and, in the long run, have suffered from its fatal effects. Another matter of fact is that the general public was not informed if there are antidotes that can be used to reverse the effects of the drugs in case adverse effects may be experienced by patients. Hence for those who have been severely affected by the drug are left with no other choice than to file a Xarelto lawsuit.

With the current documentation, there have been a total of 430 patients who have filed the Xarelto lawsuit to at least file for claims for the serious medical health conditions that the use of the drug has resulted into. Some of the worst cases that these complainants had to deal with is severe intestinal and rectal bleeding, intracranial hemorrhage and bleeding in the kidneys.

Another point of controversy dealing with the effects of Xarelto is that since it is an anticoagulant, It is supposed to prevent formation of clots; but in some cases, patients are complaining that the drug has been the recognized cause of the impeded blood supply due to clot formation. Moreover, in cases where the patients have been taking anticoagulant drugs, clots could not be surgically removed because of the great probability of uncontrolled hemorrhage even when a small and simple incision is made; and when bleeding becomes impossible to control, the patient may get into a coma because of the severe blood loss and may eventually die if the bleeding continues.
