Campath Side Effects

 

Campath Serious Long-term and Short-term Side Effects Campath manufactured by Schering and Genzyme Corp. Is approved to treat Leukemia. The FDA, on May 7, 2001 approved vz. On September 16, 2005 Genzyme and Schering suspended dosages in a trial study for ‘Campath’ after reports of three cases of serious side effects that lead to a death. The Phase II or mid-stage trial side effects consisted of three cases of Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP).

Low Platelet Count That Can Cause Abnormal Bleeding

Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP) is a condition in which patients experience a low platelet count that can cause abnormal bleeding. Genzyme and Schering said they have notified regulatory authorities, trial sites and patients about risks. The companies have consulted a panel of experts to advise the companies on how to reduce risks of ITP.

Treatments for Multiple Sclerosis have recently been under the microscope after the drug Tysabri, made by Elan Corp. and Biogen Idec Inc. was removed from the market in February after it was linked to a rare and potentially fatal brain disease.

As a survivor of the 9/11 disaster zone, I really appreciate the direction, support, and friendliness of working with Parker Waichman in submitting my VCF claim. It would not have been possible without their dedicated assistance (and sometimes hand holding!) I would like to give a special shout out to Tina who was a joy to work with. She makes you feel that YOUR claim is the only one she is working on and YOUR claim is THE most important one on her desk. I recommend Parker Waichman to my former colleagues and friends who need help organizing their files for VCF fund consideration.
