VIOXX ALERT

On Sept. 30th, 2004, Merck Pharmaceuticals voluntarily recalled the prescription arthritis medication Vioxx because of a possible link to heart attacks and strokes in users. If you or a loved one has suffered a serious medical problem while taking Vioxx, please contact the Law Offices of Larry D. Wilks for a consultation to discuss your situation.

  • Design Flaws
  • Manufacturing Defects
  • Improper Instructions / Labeling

an individual can be seriously inured or killed. Manufacturers of consumer products have a responsibility to ensure the safety of their products. If these products result in a serious injury or wrongful death, the injured party has the right to seek compensation for their injuries, including:

  • Medical Bills
