Topamax Lawsuit

Despite how obvious it may seem that Topamax caused oral cleft birth defect injuries in your case, a Topamax lawsuit brought against a billion dollar company still requires much time and dedication to win. To have success in a Topamax lawsuit, the burden will be on you and your Topamax lawyers to put forward a compelling argument that will demonstrate that the makers and distributors of Topamax are “more likely than not” liable for your injuries. The following list contains just a few examples of claims you might be able to bring forward in a Topamax lawsuit.

(Please note that this list is not exhaustive, and some claims not listed can and will be brought up in your Topamax lawsuit if they bear relevance in your particular situation. This list is for informational purposes only, and is not intended to serve as legal advice.)

Topamax Lawsuit for Manufacturing Defects

Topamax manufacturing defect claims allege that the manufacturers, designers, distributors, sellers and/or suppliers of Topamax produced the drug in such a way that it was defective in its manufacture and construction, making it unreasonably dangerous and not fit for the ordinary purpose for which it was intended. The standard for this Topamax lawsuit claim would be the reasonable expectations of the ordinary consumer.

Topamax Lawsuit for Design Defects

Similarly, this Topamax lawsuit claim aims to prove that Topamax is defective in its design such that it is unreasonably dangerous and not fit for the ordinary purpose for which it was intended. Again, the standard for design defect claims brought in a Topamax lawsuit is the reasonable expectations of the ordinary consumer.

Topamax’s Inadequate Warning Label

This Topamax lawsuit claim can be raised if the manufacturers, designers, distributors, sellers and/or suppliers of Topamax knew or should have known that Topamax was unreasonably dangerous to consumers, namely pregnant women, and that these parties failed to adequately warn consumers and/or their health care providers of such increased risks.

Topamax Lawsuit for Design Defects Due to Failure to Adequately Test

Another claim that may be raised in a Topamax lawsuit is that the safety of Topamax was not adequately tested for use with pregnant women, a large demographic to which Topamax’s marketing targeted. Had the testing been more thorough and the results released to the public, the injured party would not have taken Topamax, and therefore, any injury could have been averted.
