Proton pump inhibitors are very common prescription medications given to people with heartburn and acid reflux disease.

You may know them as Nexium, Prevacid, or Prilosec, or by another familiar brand name.

They work by blocking acid buildup in the stomach

But they have also been found to limit the absorption of minerals your body needs – that’s a serious PPI side-effect.

But even more seriously, it can result in acute kidney injury or interstitial nephritis, chronic kidney disease, or even kidney failure, requiring dialysis treatment or a kidney transplant.

These Proton Pump Inhibitors side effects have also been linked to heart attack and bone fractures.

Proton-pump inhibitors are marketed as safe and effective.

But now, it appears that the drug makers may not have adequately warned the public about known side effects of acid reflux drugs.

It’s possible that such warnings to both patients and doctors might have helped them to choose to take action that would have avoided serious injury.

If you or a loved one developed any of these conditions after taking a proton pump inhibitor heartburn medication, you should talk with a Proton Pump Inhibitor lawyer.

Too often drug manufacturers put making profit over people. These heart burn drug makers have a duty to provide safe products. If there are risks of harm associated with their products, they also must provide adequate warnings. If they fail to do this, they should be held responsible for injuries that it causes.
These PPI makers don’t have to live with the consequences of failing to warn of risks they knew or should have known from. Consequences that the victims and their families have to live with every single day. At Greg Jones Law we want to hold PPI companies responsible to get you or your loved one paid for your medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering and for any permanent disability you or a loved one may suffer due to these drugs.
