- Paxil Lawyers in Phoenix, AZ
Since its 1992 release into the market, Paxil (paroxetine) has become a widely prescribed medication for treating depression and a slew of other disorders including anxiety and panic attacks. Although it is an effective antidepressant, Paxil is also associated with a number of negative side effects, including birth defects resulting from usage by pregnant women. At Phillips Law Group, our legal team is proud to offer experienced defective drug and Paxil lawyers. Our attorneys, based in Phoenix, Arizona, fight for the rights of victims across the country.
Information about Paxil
Paxil is a prescription drug used to treat depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), anxiety disorder, social phobia, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and other psychological conditions. Paroxetine is a powerful selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), which controls the brains serotonin levels to work as an anti-depressant.
Possible Side Effects
Possible side effects associated with Paxil use range from mild symptoms such as drowsiness and headache, to more serious risks including increased depression, uncharacteristic feelings of aggression, sexual side effects, and suicide. Suicidal feelings associated with Paxil are more likely to occur at the onset of treatment, when dosage levels change, or during withdrawal from the drug. If you or someone you love has experienced physical or psychological side effects from Paxil, contact a personal injury attorney at Phillips Law Group. Our lawyers in the Phoenix, Arizona area represent clients throughout the nation in defective drug cases and can help you obtain the compensation you deserve.
Birth Defect Risks for Paxil Users
The FDA and GlaxoSmithKline, the manufacturer of Paxil, have changed the warning labels associated with the drug due to a risk of birth defects in women who are pregnant or who may become pregnant. Numerous studies have shown that women who use Paxil during the first trimester of pregnancy are one-and-a-half to two times more likely to have a child born with a birth defect, specifically a cardiac disorder that causes holes in the hearts chambers and walls. If your child was born with a heart problem and you were using prescription Paxil during pregnancy, contact the attorneys at Phillips Law Group today.

Depression and anxiety disorders affect millions of people across the country, and Paxil is an effective medication to treat these problems.

It’s an Honor and a Privilege to work for a company that cares about its employees and clients for 12 years. I’ve seen Management go out of their way to help someone whether it’s a personal matter or work related. I am also reminded of many occasions where a Client needed urgent help and we as a Team were able to get the person immediate assistance. At Phillips Law we make that happen through Teamwork and a dedication to our profession. I’ve had numerous jobs in several other fields, those were just jobs. This is a home. Many of us have been here for quite a few years, it feels like one large extended family.

Great experience! Took care of pretty much everything, and I always felt like I want in good hands. Caroline Fa. was also a great help with everything. She always returned my calls and I never felt unheard. Even after my case she would still help me with my insurance documents.

I enjoy my work day here at Phillips Law Group and generally speaking I love my clients. Every day brings a new client or task to keep me on my toes. Administration keeps open communication and is hilarious most of the time! I love the way we celebrate FRIDAY, holidays and birthdays and how everything is so competitive. All in all I’m so fortunate to be here and I enjoy what I do.
