Speak with a Celexa Lawyer
Celexa is an antidepressant medication designed to balance serotonin levels in the brain. Recent medical studies have raised concerns, however, that SSRIs such as Celexa can lead to serious birth defects when mothers use the medication during pregnancy. Our Celexa attorneys continue to review the extent to which the drug’s manufacturer was aware of this risk and whether the company failed to properly warn women of childbearing age.
The Celexa lawyers at our firm have received reports of serious congenital anomalies from mothers who used SSRIs during pregnancy, including cardiac defects, neural tube defects, limb reduction defects, cleft lip, and cleft palate.
Lawsuits against the manufacturers of Celexa and other SSRIs allege that the drug companies aggressively marketed these medications as safe and effective for pregnant women without prior FDA approval while at the same time hiding the true risks the drugs could pose to unborn children.
If your family has been affected by birth defects, contact an experienced Celexa lawyer in our office at (866) 808-2424 or online for a free review of your case.
