Although the above list are only some of the potential side-effects of prescription drugs, some of them are extremely serious or potentially fatal.

While prescription drugs need to be approved by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) before they may be prescribed to the general public, some of the prescription drug case-studies may not identify long-term side-effects of using these dangerous drugs.  Additionally, many of the side-effects may result when multiple drugs are taken in combination as they are prescribed by a doctor.

Once the FDA has determined that a particular prescription drug or medication is no longer safe, in that it causes more harm than it prevents, then it may be placed on the dangerous drug list of recalled drugs.  If this is the case, even if you are not presently exhibiting some of the detrimental signs from the drug, you may still be able to recover compensation for your current and future injuries.
