DECISION 2010: Canadian Vioxx Claims
The anti-inflammatory drug Vioxx was recalled over five years ago September 30, 2004 after evidence came out that it causes stroke and heart attacks. Since then the Miskin firm has represented individual Vioxx users hurt by that drug who are making claims. In the USA a settlement is still being implemented for over two years and Merck recently paid the final installment of settlement money as US claims are processed. Meanwhile Merck still fights a class action lawsuit in Canadian courts and has not yet paid any claims. In 2010 the fight to get Canadians compensation has finally moved to the next stage with certification finalized and finally directions for the class action coming through the Ontario Court. Vioxx claimants now have a decision to make.
