Defective Drug Injury Attorneys in New Mexico
Protecting the Rights of People Harmed by Dangerous Pharmaceuticals
Finding medical treatment that is right for you can be a complicated process. You may need to try many different types of medication, therapy, and other methods before finding something that works. Although some prescriptions may not be the best choice for you, other drugs can actively cause harm to patients if they are defective.
Defective drugs are doubly dangerous because they not only fail to treat the medical condition for which they were prescribed, but also cause additional injury to patients. A person can suffer from severe injuries or illnesses if they use a defective drug.
The New Mexico defective drug injury lawyers of Lyons & Simmons, LLP can represent you if you or a loved one were injured because of a harmful medication. Contact us today to learn more about how we can help you recover the compensation you deserve.

When is a Drug Considered Defective?
A drug may be labeled as defective if it fails to treat a certain condition and/or causes injury to patients. Defects are issues that result from negligence during the creation, manufacturing, and marketing of a drug.
It is important to consider that all side effects caused by drugs are not evident of defects. Most drugs do cause side effects; however, a drug may be defective if you are experiencing a dangerous side effect that was not listed in the information you were provided about the medication.
