Your Advocate In Cases Against Major Drug Companies
Sertraline hydrochloride is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) which is a type of antidepressant. It is manufactured by Pfizer and has been marketed under the name Zoloft. The drug has most commonly been prescribed as a treatment for conditions such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD).
Zoloft has had a history of negative side effects, including increased risk of suicide and a myriad of birth defects, all of which were initially denied by Pfizer. The company has added warnings about suicide risk to packaging, advertisements and the Zoloft website. Despite mounting data and U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warnings to the contrary, however, Pfizer has remained steadfast in its denial of responsibility for birth defects.
It appears that Pfizer and its lawyers will go to any lengths to avoid responsibility for the harm Zoloft causes to unborn children. If your child was born with a birth defect after you took Zoloft during the pregnancy, you should speak to a reliable product liability attorney immediately.
