Merck announced the worldwide withdrawal of the arthritis pain killer Vioxx on September 30, 2004. The news was welcomed by the US Food and Drug Administration, which had raised concerns about the safety of the drug after a study showed an increased risk of strokes and heart attacks.
Milavetz, Gallop & Milavetz is working with hundreds of attorneys across the nation to ensure victims of Vioxx receive compensation for Vioxx caused personal injuries and wrongful deaths. The Federal Courts have consolidated federal Vioxx litigation before the Honorable Judge Eldon E. Fallon of the Eastern District of Louisiana.
Due to Hurricane Katrina and Rita, the Vioxx litigation was uprooted out of New Orleans. Given the catastrophic nature of these hurricanes, the Court is changing locations rapidly. For the most recent information on the status and locations of Vioxx litigation, the Court has setup a Vioxx MDL webpage ( http://vioxx.laed.uscourts.gov/ ) with information and orders of Judge Fallon.
