KIDNEY FAILURE / KIDNEY DAMAGE / TRASYLOL

The injection drug Trasylol has been associated with an increased risk of kidney failure, heart attack, stroke and other serious adverse events. Trasylol is an anti-bleeding drug given right before surgery in hopes of mitigating the need for blood transfusions. It was used primarily in coronary artery bypass grafting surgery but may have also been given in other surgeries in which there was a high risk for blood loss. Because it was given after the patient was put under, most given Trasylol did not know.

If you had a major surgery and suffered kidney failure or kidney damage following the surgery, contact us now so that we may investigate your case to see if Trasylol was to blame.

The Montgomery Law Firm has learned of the dangers of Trasylol on the heels of a study published in The New England Journal of Medicine in 2006. In fact, this study found that Trasylol doubled the risk of kidney failure compared to placebo. If you have experienced an adverse health event as a result of taking Trasylol, contact one of the Trasylol attorneys at The Montgomery Law Firm immediately to discuss whether you are entitled to compensation.
