On Wednesday, October 21 a Montana jury awarded $3.2 million dollars to a Missoula woman, finding that drug-maker Novartis was negligent in failing to warn about risks associated with its bone-strengthening drug Zometa. The plaintiff showed that the manufacturer was aware that the drug made people more likely to get osteonecrosis (bone death), but did not warn doctors who prescribe the drug to their patients.
Failure to adequately warn about a drug's dangers can establish a drug manufacturer's liability in Virginia. If you've been injured or become ill as a result of the negligence of a pharmaceutical company,
