Nexium Side Effects

Causing Bone Fractures

We are reviewing Nexium side effect claims throughout the country of individuals who used Nexium for the excessive stomach acid condition known as gastroesophygal reflex disease (GERD).  Our clients have unfortunately suffered the unique side effects of diminished bone strength leading to bone fractures.

Nexium is manufactured by Astra Zeneca and approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for gastroesophygal reflex disease (GERD).

The active ingredient in Nexium is a drug called Esomeprazole. This drug removes GERD symptoms by decreasing the amount of acid in the stomach.

The manufacturer, Astra Zeneca, has recently updated Nexium's warning label to include bone fractures linked to Nexium use over long periods of time.

Nexium is a protein pump inhibitor. The FDA has issued a consumer warning regarding the increased risk of hip, wrist, and spine fractures due to long-term use of Nexium.

In March 2011, the FDA issued a safety alert for drugs such as Nexium due to the increased risk of fractures. In May 2010, the FDA required additional warning labels concerning the increased risk of osteoporosis and fractures connected to Protein Pump Inhibitors such as Nexium.

We are actively investigating Nexium side effect cases throughout the country and are currently accepting Nexium cases in all 50 states.

Studies have shown that the risk of fracture significantly increases to patients over 50 who took Nexium for more than one year. We have seen clients who snapped a leg bone while walking or just walking downstairs.

We intend to prove that Astra Zeneca marketed and sold Nexium without warning to consumers of the risks of bone deterioration and bone fractures.

We are assisting Nexium side effect victims who suffered a bone fracture to their wrist, spine or hip while on Nexium. The only injury claims we are reviewing are individuals who were on Nexium and suffered a bone fracture while on Nexium.
