Novartis International AG Lawsuits

The makers of Tasigna known as Novartis International AG falsely promoted the drug's effectiveness to cancer doctors

Friday, June 23, 2017 - Plaintiffs from all 50 states are suing Swiss pharmaceutical giant Novartis International AG because of the peripheral artery disease, heart attacks, and strokes they are suffering from using their anti-cancer drug Tasigna, a form of chemotherapy.

Our plaintiffs allege that the company is negligent in many different ways and that negligence has ruined the lives or caused the outright deaths of countless Americans. Allegations against Novartis International AG include but are not limited to the following:

1. Cancer health care professionals, as well as the American public, were left unaware that Tasigna causes Peripheral Artery Disease.

2. Maker and manufacturer of Tasigna, Novartis International AG, has known of the Peripheral Artery Disease risk of Tasigna since at least 2011 but willfully and deceitfully chose to continue to market the drug in the US without warning.

3. While issuing a 2013 Tasigna side effects warning in Canada via the Canadian health service, Novartis never warned cancer professionals or patients in the United States.

4. Rather than risk their multi-billion-dollar market share, Novartis engaged in misbranding and illegally paid doctor’s incentives to push Tasigna in lieu of other less-dangerous alternatives.

5. Novartis marketing executive promoted Tasigna with an aggressive marketing campaign over-promising results and touting false Tasigna superiority claims.

Other incriminating circumstances surrounding Novartis' include:

1. Novartis recently settle a $390 million lawsuit brought against the company by the U.S. Department of Justice for illegally misbranding and overstating the drug's effectiveness in curing cancer.

2. The company falsely promoted the drug's effectiveness to cancer doctors as being superior to other similar anti-cancer drugs on the market.

3. In 2016 the company made no effort to warn consumers of the risks to their health if they used the drug.

Thousands of Americans have been sickened or have died suddenly from the side effects of taking Tasigna. If after taking a Tasigna anti-cancer chemotherapy treatment, you suffer from chest pains, light-headedness, weakness, or abnormal heart beats, inform your doctor at once as theses may be symptoms that could lead to Peripheral Artery Disease, strokes, heart attacks and potentially instant death. Tasigna patients should undergo an electrocardiogram (ECG) to test for an irregular heartbeat or other signs of heart abnormality before, immediately after, and on a regular basis, and be alert for the following symptoms:

1. Chest tightness and pain and the feeling of light-headedness, weakness, or abnormal heart beats.

2. Pain, tingling, numbness, swelling or weakness in the leg.

3. Discoloration in the toes or swelling of the feet.
