Labeling and marketing materials for these products also claim the products prevent infection from other disease-causing agents. […]

Texas Salmonella Outbreak Linked to Raw Milk

Three children and one adult have fallen seriously ill with Salmonella after drinking raw milk, Texas state officials just announced, said WFAA.

Pesticide Exposure Before Birth Linked To Lower IQ

Another study has found a link between pesticides and adverse health risks, this time—and not for the first time—with children. Expectant mothers exposed to high amounts of specific pesticides tend to give birth to children with lower IQs when compared to their nonexposed peers, by the time they reach school age, said CNN, citing a […]

Dangerous Skin Reaction, Stevens-Johnson Syndrome, A Risk of Many Medications

Patient advocates maintain that the current drug allergy alert on labels of many over-the-counter medications like ibuprofen don’t adequately warn users about the risk of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS), a potentially fatal skin reaction.

I worked with Shelly Davis for the past few years regarding my Dad’s 911 claim. My Dad passed away from being at ground zero on 911 due to cancer he developed while working in construction there. Shelly provided the quickest and most efficient information while working with me on this claim. She was quick to get back to me and was always there when I had questions. She was courteous and professional, I highly recommend using Shelly Davis from Parker Waichman.
