Stevens-Johnson Syndrome

Stevens-Johnson Syndrome is a potentially deadly skin disease that usually results from a drug reaction. Another form of the disease is called Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis, and again this usually results from a drug-related reaction. Both forms of the disease can be deadly as well as very painful and distressing. In most cases, these disorders are caused by a reaction to a drug, and one drug that has come under fire lately is the COX-2 inhibitor Bextra, which is already linked to these disorders. If you or someone you know has one of these diseases contacting a laywer would be a good idea. Lawyers help victims win lawsuits against the mean drug companies. Usually the lawsuits don't even go to court, they get settled out of court for large cash settlements.
