Nadrich & Cohen is investigating Multaq side effect victims throughout the country. Multaq is prescribed to individuals who have a minor heart condition to keep their heartbeat on an even keel. It is supposed to moderate or an even out an irregular heartbeat. It is prescribed to treat atrial fibrillation or A-Fib and Atrial Flutter or A-Flutter. This heart drug is manufactured by Sanofi-Aventis and is used on a long-term basis.  It is given to patients who have had a Cardiac Arrhythmia (irregular heartbeat), Atrial Fibrillation or Atrial Flutter.

A significant side effect of Multaq is the increased risk of heart failure, i.e. congestive heart failure. Patients with such a history are not prescribed Multaq.

Recent medical community reports have reported cases of liver failure or liver damage from taking Multaq. The FDA announced on January 16, 2011, that the manufacturer reported that certain Multaq patients have suffered liver failure and required liver transplants. The FDA on January 14, 2011 released a statement stating that it was "alerting health care professionals and patients about cases of rare, but severe liver injury, including two cases of acute liver failure leading to liver transplant in patients treated with Multaq."

At least 200,000 patients have been prescribed Multaq since 2009. The FDA is continuing to review possible adverse reports and adverse drug interactions concerning Multaq.

Multaq has been prescribed since 2009.

Again, Multaq has considerable risks, including heart failure, irregular heart beats, impaired kidney function, and now serious liver damage.
Multaq includes a Black Box Warning required by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Such a warning is the most serious warning or caution that the FDA can order for a drug, short of forcing a drug's recall from the marketplace. The Black Box Warning is on the drug's label and is highlighted in a bold black-lined square. The warning is within the square. The warning states that Multaq shouldn't be taken by patients who have a pre-existing history of severe or moderate heart failure or if they have been hospitalized for heart failure.

Since we have 19 offices in Caliyfornia and we are a national law firm we will be investigating numerous Multaq claims due to the high number of adverse events of liver damage and death in the short period of time (only eighteen months) since Multaq was approved by the FDA.
