Second Philly Xarelto Verdict Out: Jury Favors Defendants
Introduction
Philadelphia state jury overseeing the second Xarelto linked gastrointestinal bleeding lawsuit announced the verdict in favor of the defendants Bayer Healthcare Pharmaceuticals Inc. and J&J subsidiary Janssen Pharmaceuticals Inc. The plaintiff from New Jersey claimed his injury could have been avoided had he and the medical community be warned about the internal bleeding risks associated with Xarelto.
Xarelto lawsuits are centralized in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana before Judge Eldon E. Fallon as a part of MDL No.- 2592. Currently, more than 22,000 Xarelto cases are pending in several courts across the country.
