Used Accutane?

Our DC and Boston Injury Lawyers Hold Drug Companies Responsible for Your Injuries

Used to treat only the most serious cases of acne, Accutane is a powerful and effective prescription treatment. While Accutane use can be effective in treating severe acne, the drug is linked to a range of dangerous conditions resulting in serious injury and even death.

Side Effects Associated with Accutane Use

While it is only prescribed under strict medical guidance, Accutane use is associated with a wide range of side effects. Minor effects like dry skin, sun sensitivity and nausea are relatively manageable. However, the drug is also linked to serious birth defects, including physical deformity, mental retardation and fetal death. So that necessary precautions can be taken, all possible side effects need to be fully disclosed to every patient in Washington, D.C., and Massachusetts who takes Accutane. Our Boston and Washington DC injury attorneys know of Accutane users whose depression and suicides were linked to Accutane use.
