Bereaved Widow files a Viagra Lawsuit
Bereaved Widow files a Viagra Lawsuit
Introduction
Pfizer, Inc., has one more Viagra lawsuit filed against it by a bereaved widow who claims that Viagra was responsible for the development of her husband’s melanoma diagnosis and death. Owing to the growing number of lawsuits filed against the manufacturer of Viagra, the cases were centralized in 2016 as MDL No. 2691 (In Re: Viagra, Sildenafil Citrate, Products Liability Litigation), before Judge Richard Seeborg, in the Northern District of California, and comprise more than 500 lawsuits. Bellwether trials are set to begin in 2019. Allegations include that Pfizer failed to adequately warn the public and the medical community about the risk of skin cancer linked with Viagra, defective design, gross negligence, and fraudulent misrepresentation and concealment.
