Pacerone Side Effects

Pacerone Can Cause Liver Damage. Patients taking Pacerone and Amiodarone have died from lung and liver damage, gone blind or suffered from severe skin reactions. Yet they are routinely prescribed for common heart rhythm problems despite the availability of safer alternatives. The FDA has approved Amiodarone and Pacerone only for more severe disorders, called ventricular arrhythmias, and then only as a treatment of last resort.

Pacerone is another brand name for Amiodarone. These heart drugs continue to be prescribed to millions of patients nationwide without the detailed consumer warnings promised by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration long ago. Each bottle of the drug is supposed to include a new advisory warning of the many risks, symptoms of fatal side effects, and explaining how the medication is supposed to be used. But the advisory, planned since October 2003, remains in draft form.& Sen. Charles Grassley, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, said he will look into the delays in the Amiodarone and ‘Pacerone’ warnings. What’s happening with this drug goes to the heart of questions about how long it takes the FDA to act when known risks or dangers exist, said Grassley, R-Iowa. The FDA and drug companies might know about risks, but it doesn’t do any good if doctors and patients don’t know about them too.

Pacerone Linked To TEN

Pacerone has recently been linked to Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN). The main cause of Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) is a severe drug reaction. Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) is a rare condition that causes large portions of the epidermis, the skin’s outermost layer, to peel off from the layers of skin below.

It has been an amazingly gratifying and enjoyable experience working with PW, and making it that way is my paralegal contact ,Tina. She answers all my questions with patience, knowledge and understanding. Tina returns calls quickly and explains situations and progress clearly and all her answers are with the kind of details I request. Importantly, Tina always contacts me quickly with any status change or requirement for additional information. My case is still in progress and I am comforted to know my interaction with Tina will continue to be enjoyable, informative and interesting.

Parker Waichman LLP- Paralegal, Jessie Salcedo, she is professional and has been very helpful. I am a new mom and a newlywed so my life is very chaotic at times. Sometimes it's hard todo anything else but my basic day to day stuff. They have made this process very easy for me. All I've really had todo is provide some information and they have handled everything else. I greatly appreciate their services and would refer them to anyone. Also, they remembered my birthday this past September. They sent me a card. Most of my friends don't remember my birthday. To me, that was going out of their way just to brighten my day and I really appreciated it.
