Fosamax lawsuits begin

-WHYY News

08/12/2009 - Hundreds of patients who used the osteoporosis drug Fosamax are suing the manufacturer over damage to their jawbones.

The first of hundreds of lawsuits against pharmaceutical company Merck will begin in New York. A jury will decide whether the company misrepresented the side effects associated with Fosamax treatment.

Fosamax is a bisphosphonate intended to inhibit bone loss. Bisphosphonates are associated with cell death in the jaw, but it is unclear whether the drug causes bone decay.

In a statement, Merck says it will “vigorously defend itself” in court in this first case, and that Fosamax was not responsible for the plaintiff’s jaw damage.

Although most cases of osteonecrosis of the jaw related to Fosamax side effects have occurred after dental work several cases have been reported to occur without any prior dental work. If you are currently taking Fosamax you may be at risk of developing osteonecrosis. If you have been injured by Fosamax side effects you may be entitled to compensation.
