Phoenix DURAGESIC Patch Lawyers

At Phillips Law Group, we are currently representing victims who have suffered the potentially life-threatening effects of using the DURAGESIC Patch, a recalled prescription patch that was designed to relieve serious and persistent pain. If you have experienced side effects after using the DURAGESIC Pain Patch, contact our lawyers in Phoenix, Arizona to find out if you are eligible for compensation.

What Led to the DURAGESIC Patch Recall?

Since Janssen Pharmaceutica Products, L.P., a company owned by Johnson & Johnson, recalled the DURAGESIC Patch in April 2004, our lawyers in Arizona have continued to pursue justice for those affected by its potentially life-threatening side effects.

The patch was originally designed to deliver a carefully measured dose of fentanyl, a DEA Schedule II narcotic, directly into the bloodstream. However, it was found to have a potentially faulty seal that could result in the leakage of large amounts of the drug. If a faulty patch is applied to the skin, an excessive amount of the strong narcotic could lead to an overdose resulting in varied symptoms.

Potentially Life-Threatening Side Effects of the DURAGESIC Patch

If you or a loved one is currently experiencing any of the following symptoms and feel that they may be linked to the use of the DURAGESIC Patch, contact a medical professional immediately:

• Nausea
• Excessive Drowsiness
• Labored Breathing
• Seizures
• Respiratory Failure
• Possible Cardiac Arrest
• Coma
• …and even death

In addition, the DURAGESIC Patch has been found to have the potential to leak prior to its application to the skin, resulting in symptoms such as withdrawal, abdominal discomfort, and sleeplessness.

There are thousands of DURAGESIC users who are potentially at risk for an injury stemming from a fentanyl overdose or insufficient pain control.
