: Georgia Injury Lawyer BlogSkin Warning Issued about Alcoholism Therapy Drug
As Georgia injury lawyers we often see people who have been injured by dangerous prescription drugs. The Federal Drug Administration (FDA) is now warning doctors about severe skin reactions in alcoholism patients who use Vivitrol, an injectable treatment made and marked by Cephalon, Inc. Doctors and patients should watch for swelling, injection, and other complications where the drug is injected. The FDA emphasizes that the proper needle must be used when administering Vivitrol. Also, the drug should be injected into muscle, not fatty tissue.
More than 200 reports of skin problems have been reported among patients. A Cephalon spokesman said the company believes some problems stem from improper injections.
If you or someone you care about was seriously injured by a dangerous drug, you should speak with an attorney at Finch McCranie, LLP.
