Bayer manufactures Aprotinin (Trasylol), the cardiac surgery drug that costs 29
times more than the safer alternative and despite that added cost can cause kidney failure heart failure and stroke. Some more well-known Bayer products
include aspirin, Aleve, Vanquish, Alka-Seltzer, and One-a-Day vitamins. Bayer
also produces 100 different veterinary medicines, vaccines, and grooming
products for livestock and companion animals and markets them worldwide. Bayer
is one of the world's most successful manufacturers of pharmaceutical products
for livestock and companion animals. Bayer operates in more than 100 countries
worldwide.
In early February 2006, the FDA issues a health advisory for Aprotinin (Trasylol)
alerting doctors who perform heart bypass surgery that two scientific
publications linked serious side effects to Aprotinin causing patients who had
undergone artery bypass graft surgery to have kidney failure, heart attacks,
encephalopathy brain disease, and strokes.
Bayer disputed the Aprotinin heart attack and Aprotinin renal failure findings claiming that the data was not in line with 15 years
of clinical data that the company collected. Tell that to the 10,000 patients
who have Aprotinin renal failure been on dialysis because of receiving an aprotin injection.
Do you have an aprotin renal failure lawsuit? If you or a loved one has experienced
Aprotinin renal failure, stroke, or heart attack when injected with aprotinin
during heart bypass surgery — you may be eligible for a Aprotinin kidney failure lawsuit.
