During early March 2002, a prescription diet medication called Meridia (sibutramine) came under suspicion for being an unsafe drug in the United States and in Europe. On March 19, 2002, a petition was filed with the FDA requesting a Meridia recall in the U.S. The petition contends that: (1) Meridia is a dangerous drug; (2) Meridia should not have been approved by the FDA in the first place; and, (3) in the interest of safety, there should be an immediate Meridia recall. The entire Public Citizen Petition can be viewed by use of this link. Meridia was first sold in the U.S. during February 1998. From that time until October 2002, almost 400 serious adverse reactions had been reported to the FDA for people who were taking the diet drug Meridia. The FDA data reveals that 29 of those people died, including 19 with cardiovascular causes of death such as heart attacks. As for the 19 cardiac deaths, 10 involved a person 50 years or younger, and 3 involved women under the age of 30. In addition to those deaths, 152 people were hospitalized due to serious Meridia side-effects.

  • Choosing a Lawyer
  • Always make a comparison before choosing a lawyer:
    Before you choose a lawyer always make a good comparison by asking colleagues, friends and people associated with the legal profession. You can get some important information, which you would not get by simply visiting the law firm in question. Another good comparison is by finding out what other lawyers and legal web sites think about the law firm. A good site to find out about the standing of lawyers is www.martindale.com

  • Always find out how much experience the lawyer has:
    Before choosing a lawyer, you must ascertain how much experience the lawyer has. A lawyer with more than 8 years of experience is good, 5-7 years is just fine, 3-4 years is somewhat doubtful and lesser experience than that is not acceptable. There is no doubt that the years of practice are important in sharpening the layers skills as well as his standing in the eyes of the court.
