Chantix® Lawyer
(800) 889-3898
Chantix® lawyers specialize in winning settlements and compensation for individuals injured after taking the smoking cessation pill known as Chantix®.
Produced by Pfizer and introduced in August 2006, Chantix® has been found to cause a variety of serious, potentially fatal complications, including:
- Depression
- Psychosis
- Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), swelling of the skin's mucous membranes that triggers the development of painful blisters
- Suicidal thoughts and/or behaviors
- Toxic epidermal necrolysis syndrome (TENS), a more severe form of SJS that causes the outer layer of skin to detach from underlying layers, slowly die and ultimately fall off of the body
Without treatment, the above Chantix® side effects can be fatal.
Given the severity of possible Chantix® injuries, affected individuals (as well as families of those who have died after taking Chantix®) will have a legal claim against Pfizer and will be entitled to compensation for their injuries.
