Xarelto Defendants: Third Time Lucky

Introduction

The third straight win for Xarelto defendants in the Xarelto MDL No. 2592 bellwether trial, boosts the defendant's stand regarding the safety and efficacy of Xarelto. Bayer released a statement saying, ''that its FDA-approved label contains accurate, science-based information on the benefits and risks of this life-saving medicine.” This decision came in by the Mississippi federal jury in favor of the defendants: J&J's Janssen Pharmaceuticals Inc. and Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals Inc. The plaintiff alleged that the Prothrombin Time (PT) test which is used to assess a patient's risks for bleeding, was not informed and instructed to the doctors by the manufacturers. This was opposed by the defendant's say that the PT test was not scientifically reliable.
