Our national mass tort lawyers are currently seeking and investigating Wegovy lawsuits for individuals who used Wegovy and subsequently developed gastroparesis or related health conditions.’ This page will look at Wegovy lawsuits and their potential settlement value.

Wegovy (semaglutide) is the brand name of a prescription drug that is used for weight loss and weight management. Wegovy has been around awhile, but recent studies have found that prolonged use of this drug can significantly increase the risk of developing gastroparesis.

Until recently, the drug label for Wegovy did not contain any warning about the potential risk of gastroparesis. This has prompted a wave of product liability lawsuits alleging that the drug maker negligently failed to warn. Anyone who suffered gastroparesis after using Wegovy may be able to file a Wegovy lawsuit and get financial compensation.

This page provides a comprehensive overview of the BioZorb lawsuit and the potential legal and financial implications for plaintiffs who have suffered due to this medical device.

Video game addiction lawsuits, particularly those involving Fortnite, are gaining momentum as public awareness about the harm caused by gaming addiction grows. Fortnite, one of the most popular and addictive games in the world, has become the focal point of many gaming addiction lawsuits filed against its creator, Epic Games. These Fortnite lawsuits allege that Fortnite’s addictive qualities have caused severe mental, emotional, and physical harm, particularly to young players, sparking claims of negligent design and failure to warn.

Many lawyers rolled their eyes at these lawsuits when victims first began filing them. No one is rolling their eyes anymore. We are learning more and more about how Fortnite addiction is no accident.

Our lawyers discuss here gaming addiction and the very addictive qualities of Fortnite specifically. We will also look at the allegations being made in Fortnite addiction lawsuits, and the potential settlement amounts victims will see if these lawsuits are as successful as our attorneys expect.

Mounjaro is a diabetes drug manufactured by Eli Lilly. Recently, Mounjaro (and similar drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy) have become widely used for weight loss and weight management in obese patients. New evidence has emerged, however, showing that using higher doses of Mounjaro for weight loss can cause serious health problems involving the gallbladder and the gastrointestinal system. Mounjaro use has been linked to gallbladder disease, gallstones, gastroparesis (stomach paralysis), and other stomach conditions.

Eli Lilly apparently knew about these dangerous risks associated with Mounjaro but failed to warn doctors and patients about them. Individuals who used Mounjaro and suffered some of these injuries are now bringing Mounjaro product liability lawsuits. The national mass tort lawyers at Miller & Zois are investigating new Mounjaro injury cases. If you took Mounjaro for weight loss and suffered gastroparesis, contact us for a free case evaluation.

Marketed as a safe alternative to hormone replacement therapies, Veozah quickly gained popularity among women seeking relief from debilitating vasomotor symptoms. However, the celebration was short-lived. Reports of severe liver injuries linked to the drug began to surface, prompting FDA interventions and spurring a wave of lawsuits.

Patients allege that Veozah’s manufacturer, Astellas Pharma, failed to adequately warn consumers and healthcare providers about the significant risks associated with its use. As the number of affected individuals grows, legal action is shedding light on the dangers of insufficient drug testing and corporate negligence.
