Zofran Lawsuits

Were you prescribed Zofran for morning sickness?

Zofran lawsuits are mass tort claims against the pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline for birth defects caused by its nausea pill, Zofran. Zofran was routinely prescribed for expectant mothers who suffered from morning sickness, even though the drug was not approved for use during pregnancy. It has since been linked to sharp increases in the risk for cleft palette and congenital heart defects.

The lawsuits claim that GlaxoSmithKline failed to warn doctors and patients of the risks, and seek compensation for:

  • Medical expenses,
  • Lost wages for the mother,
  • Reduced earning capacity, and
  • Pain and suffering.
