Cleveland Attorney: Vytorin® Class Action Lawsuit

If you are like many older Americans, you struggle to keep your cholesterol levels under control. Because high cholesterol can contribute to a wide range of health problems, you may have turned to one of the many pharmaceuticals that claim to reduce or maintain cholesterol levels. The manufacturers of Vytorin® claim that it is a drug for reducing cholesterol, however research has shown the drug to be ineffective and may even increase risk of heart attack and stroke.

At the law office of Frank Piscitelli Co., LPA, in Cleveland, we work closely with individuals who have taken Vytorin® and had negative results. We have filed a class action against Merck and Schering-Plough seeking damages for all injuries suffered by men and women who have used the drug. Contact us to discuss whether you have a claim.

Vytorin® was introduced as a drug that would combine the cholesterol-lowering effects of two approved pharmaceuticals: Zetia® and Zocor®. Vytorin® generates annual revenues in excess of $5 billion. Research has shown that Vytorin® may increase the risk of heart attack and brain aneurysms, as clinical tests showed that the drug failed to reduce total cholesterol while simultaneously raising certain cholesterol levels. The drug has also been linked to serious muscle and liver problems.

At the office of Frank Piscitelli Co., LPA, we aggressively pursue recovery from pharmaceutical companies, helping you get full and fair compensation for any injuries you have suffered.

If you or a loved one has taken the drug Vytorin®, contact our office to schedule a free initial consultation. We are open Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Evening and weekend appointments are available upon request.
