Pradaxa, the popular oral anticoagulant drug, have been prescribed to countless patients suffering atrial fibrillation since 2010.

What was aggressively promoted as a better and safer solution to warfarin to treat the disorder, turned out to have a harsh side effect patients were not properly informed about; internal bleeding with no effective antidote.

To help victims of Pradaxa side effects, leading consumer information website Pradaxa LawSuit Team, http://www.pradaxalawsuitteam.com/ , was launched to provide sensible information about the adverse effects of the drug and offer free case reviews.

Currently, the website has updated their information and reopened their cost free case review service, in connection with the recent developments and findings concerning Pradaxa.

Last April 30, 2013, Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, Inc had **announced through their website that they had updated the label warning for Praxada. The label shall now contain a box warning advising patients that discontinuing treatment can increases the risk of stroke.

With the recent negative reports regarding Pradaxa bleeding, as hundreds of plaintiffs filed Praxada lawsuits against the drug manufacturer, sales on the drug has significantly dropped.

In a ***special report posted on Bloomberg.com, as early as 2011, only after a year after Praxada was approved by the FDA on October 19, 2010, hundreds of complaints surfaced, suing the drug manufacturer and demanding compensation.

“Pradaxa has been linked to more than 500 U.S. deaths over a two-year period, and Boehringer now faces more than 150 suits over claims that it sold the drug knowing the medicine could cause bleed-outs among some patients”, reads the report.

Currently, there are still hundreds of victims who are planning to file a Pradaxa lawsuit as hundreds of pending class action lawsuits have now been consolidated into a multidistrict litigation (MDL) in the Southern District of Illinois.

Even with the updated box warning for Praxada by Boehringer about the dangers of stopping the medication, the facts still remain that the risks in taking the drug has not lessened, as stated in their official website.

“PRADAXA increases the risk of bleeding and can cause significant and, sometimes, fatal bleeding. Promptly evaluate any signs or symptoms of blood loss (e.g., a drop in hemoglobin and/or hematocrit or hypotension). Discontinue PRADAXA in patients with active pathological bleeding.” — Boehringer-ingelheim.com
