South Carolina Defective Drug Attorneys

Johnson & Johnson sued for $10 Million

Be careful choosing the products you buy for your children.

Jurors in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania ruled a Johnson & Johnson unit must pay $10 million to the family of a 13-year-old girl who experienced skin burns and permanent eye damage after she took Children’s Motrin.

The young girl took the medicine to treat a fever and cough when she was only three years old.  Ten years later, she is blind in one eye and suffered burns over 84 percent of her body.

Johnson & Johnson is the world’s second-biggest retailer of medical products.  They recalled more than 40 customer brands in 2010 including children’s and infant’s Tylenol, and Motrin and St. Joseph Aspirin.
