Lyrica Class Action Lawsuit
(Newest replies first)
Updated
If you have had an adverse reaction to Lyrica, please contact a law firm. I just called mine and gave them my basic information, and they will be having a lawyer contact us. This drug is dangerous, deadly, and should be pulled from the market. Amomg all the usual issues, today i noticed a new one had been added. For males, sperm motility can be affected and children created by parents using Lyrica, there is the possibility of birth defects. Please call and at least get on record with this firm. The more of us who call and tell our stories, the more likely it is that the drug company is going to have to cover our medical expenses, pain and suffering, etc.
Re: Hannahs Mum (# 101)
I'm so so sorry! I'm a 43 year old married mother of 2, never had drug problems before, and tried 4 times to seriously end my life whilst on Lyrica, along with much self harm. Only during the 5 years I was on it, not in the years before or the last year off it. I only was able to stop it cold turkey whilst in a coma for 2 weeks and the withdrawals after that were horrendous. Please know that it truly does make you just want to kill yourself, and it's not from anything else… I'm so so sorry again.
Re: Pamela (# 152)
I would definitely join a law suit on behalf of our daughter who sadly took her life & was on Lyrica and Cymbalta for a few years & suffered from suicidal thoughts its its only now in 2023 that we know that these are major side effects of these drugs.
I don't want other families to go through what happened to our daughter
Lyrics almost killed me on 2 different occasions, this medication should NOT be on the market. I have reached out in the past to a few attorneys and was told that there was no suit currently, but I will be following up with this firm
Re: Nikki (# 151)
Let's us band together and take before the courts! My life has forever changed since taking Lyrica! Who is willing to go in with me? I will learn how to file a suit against them. Pfizer and other big pharma companies must be held accountable!
I have talked to lawyers all over Michigan and I finally had one explain to me why nobody will take our cases. I was told because my side effects did not lead to death, I can’t prove that these side effects will last forever. So pretty much because I did not die or have a “extreme” side effect like loosing a limb or becoming permanently paralyzed he said the case is not worth lawyers time. We would not win enough money to make it worth their time. I couldn’t believe it! I was 28 and not able to function every side effect listed. I had to use a walker and I could go on and on and my case wasn’t worth his time!! Not only that I was misdiagnosed in the first place when they first put me on Lyrica. I am so disappointed
Re: kez (# 8)
Hello I want to find out more also about what can be done in Australia
It has taken my short term memory. Had to retire from same job for 29 1/2 yrs. I was on it for more than 5 yrs.
Omg!! This medicine almost killed me as well, I suffer from the side effects still 1.5 yrs later. I am also looking for an attorney
Re: June (# 5)
I too lost my job over the side effects. I'm about to lose everything- home, vehicle etc. Now I have no insurance and cannot afford all the medication I have to take now. I'm in Texas and can't find an attorney.
Re: Cheryl (# 144)
Me too neither Cheryl. I have exhausted all lawyers in a 300 mile radius. Nothing but rejection.
I was on Lyrica in 2009 and over a year they increased my dosage. I had ALL the side effects of that drug and it still affects me now. At the time they didn't have a lawsuit out for them and was still promoting the product. They only had it as a pending lawsuit. I would like to talk to someone about filling a lawsuit against them due to the side effects that still are, if not more so, affecting me. I have documentation of what it has done and what it is still doing. So who do I need to speak with about these long term symptoms that it has caused within me?
I'm in FL have not been able to find attorney for lyric. Pls share state and if attorney will take anyone from another state.
Do you have a phone number for the lawyer that will do a class action suit? I’ve called all over in the state of Maryland and can’t find a lawyer that will do anything
Have you been connected to an attorney? I've tried every one in my area. No luck. Still suffering after 8 months with on going shingles.
I have called numerous lawyers and can't find anyone to take my case. Please help
I took lyrica an had to go to ER twice with high blood pressure, water retention and severe allergies. Was put on a water pill (Ladin) and given allergy shot. My hives remained for months. The water retention in my legs took almost 2 months to subside.
