treatment-ge2ec498b1_1280-e1683586667860Recently, the United States Foods and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a recall for Fresenius’ Ivenix Infusion System. Over 1,500 infusion pumps have been found susceptible to leaks and electrical failures that can result in the pump turning off during a treatment that is normally lifesaving. These systems may be defective. If you were injured or a loved one died and you believe it was the result of an Ivenix infusion defect, you should call the seasoned Chicago-based product liability lawyers of Moll Law Group. We represent injured consumers nationwide. Billions have been recovered in lawsuits with which we’ve been involved.

Call Moll Law Group About Whether You Have an Infusion Lawsuit

The recalled system is a high-volume pump that hospital staff use to provide a patient with specific amounts of fluid to their veins, or beneath their skin, or in their spine. Patients who receive this care include adults, infants, children, teens, and neonates. The danger addressed by the recall is that the pump can leak fluids from the pump into what’s called the Administration Set Loading Area of the infusion system.

This poses a serious danger because that area is located by the Air detector, and when fluid hits the electrical parts of the infusion pump, it may go through an electrical short that leads the device to power down with so warning. There have been 14 reports arising out of this issue. No deaths were reported as of this writing, but officials have warned that delay of infusions to children who need them could cause serious injuries or deaths.

If your skate is affected, you should call Rollerblade USA to get a free replacement brake support. However, you should also be aware that if your child was injured as a result of the recalled inline skates, you and your child may have a legal claim and you should call the seasoned Chicago-based lawyers of Moll Law Group.

Altria Group Incorporated is a tobacco corporation that is based in the United States but operates worldwide. As a leader in the tobacco industry, Altria has faced scrutiny and lawsuits regarding the known health effects that tobacco products have. E-cigarettes have been no exception. Altria Group Inc. formerly invested in Juul Labs Incorporated– a company that is widely known for its e-cigarettes. However, Juul has been accused of marketing its products to teenage demographic groups and causing an epidemic of vaping among teens. Therefore, Altria’s investment in Juul has been a topic of discussion and concern. They have faced lawsuits for their involvement and have recently agreed to settle for $235 million. If you or a loved one were harmed by a vaping product associated with Juul Products or e-cigarettes, you should call the experienced Chicago-based product liability lawyers of Moll Law Group today.

Contact Moll Law Group About Your Juul Lawsuit

On Wednesday, May 10th, 2023, Altria Group Incorporated said they would pay to settle cases related to Juul and the teen vaping epidemic associated with the company. They have been said to have agreed to $235 million dollars to settle the cases related to Juul and teen vaping. They claim the settlement is to avoid the strain and expense of the legal process, but others say the settlement will provide great relief for the affected youth and parents involved. The lawsuits claim that Altria was involved in marketing sweet flavors that attracted the underage demographic. Juul has already settled cases regarding the adverse health effects and intentional branding the e-cigarettes have had on teenagers, but now Altria’s involvement and investment are also involved in the lawsuits. The deal is a pivotal step against Juul, which has faced litigation surrounding the issue of advertising and encouraging teen vaping.

align-fingers-g52339b334_640-1CoolSculpting is a brand name for an FDA-approved fat reduction procedure, cryolipolysis, in which the more stubborn fat deposits on a patient’s body—love handles—are frozen, for purposes of getting rid of them. Skin freezes at a lower temperature than fat, and the CoolSculpting device works by taking advantage of that. It is intended to cool a person’s fat deposit sufficiently to destroy that tissue while also letting the skin survive without damage. Unfortunately, there may be problems with CoolSculpting, and a lawsuit by model Linda Evangelista was filed last year to recover damages that may have been caused by the procedure. If you were injured by CoolSculpting, you should call the seasoned Chicago product liability lawyers of Moll Law Group. Billions have been recovered in lawsuits with which we’ve been involved, and we represent patients across the nation.

Call Moll Law Group About Your CoolSculpting Lawsuit

The CoolSculpting System is administered by a plastic surgeon, dermatologist or another aesthetic medicine practitioner. Rather than use needles, the practitioner targets fat deposits by hold them with paddles for around 35 minutes to 1 hour and 15 minutes. During that period, around 20% – 25% of the fat cells in the targeted location are destroyed. Typically a patient’s immune system disposes of dead fat cells for a few weeks, and the final result is seen in a few months.

There are certain medical conditions that the provider administering the procedure is expected to consider in determining whether you’re a candidate including cold urticaria, bad skin tone, cryoglobulinemia, loose skin, Raynaud’s phenomenon, and paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria. A provider should not give you the CoolSculpting procedure if you have one of these conditions.

vision-g766b2d8dd_640-300x199Recently United States health officials warned consumers that certain brands of eyedrops have been recalled because they were contaminated, and the contamination could result in vision trouble and injuries to the eyes. Last month, EzriCare eyedrops were recalled because there had been an outbreak of infections that were drug-resistant and resulted not only in permanent vision loss to five, but also the death of another. This month there were two new recalls for eyedrops distributed by Pharmedica and Apotex. So far, the latest recalls do not seem related to the earlier one, but it is best to be cautious. If you were injured by eyedrops, you should called the seasoned product liability lawyers of Moll Law Group.
