Celebrex and Bextra Lawsuit Settlements Reported May 6, 2008 AboutLawsuits Add Your CommentsPfizer, Inc. has begun discussing settlement for some Celebrex and Bextra lawsuits pending throughout the United States. According to the Wall Street Journal, the pharmaceutical company which sold both pain medications, has reached tentative deals with some individuals who suffered heart attacks or strokes which were associated with use of the drugs.Thousands of individuals have filed Celebrex lawsuits and Bextra lawsuits claiming that the COX-2 inhibitors caused an injury. Both drugs are in the same class of medications as Vioxx, which was recalled in September 2004 due to cardiovascular risks. In April 2005, Pfizer issued a Bextra recall, but they kept Celebrex on the market with much stronger warnings.The report indicates that the Bextra settlement offers have averaged about $200,000.00 for each claim and the Celebrex settlement offers have averaged about $40,000.00 to $50,000 per case. Pfizer is negotiating the settlement of lawsuits on a firm-by-firm basis, instead of attempting to arrange a global settlement like Merck did with Vioxx last November.Do You Know about…Spinal Cord Stimulator lawsuitsSpinal cord stimulator lawsuits are being investigated for individuals who suffered unnecessary shocks, burns or other problems, often resulting in the need for additional surgery to remove the SCS.Learn MoreSEE IF YOU QUALIFY FOR COMPENSATIONDo You Know About…Spinal Cord Stimulator lawsuitsSpinal cord stimulator lawsuits are being investigated for individuals who suffered unnecessary shocks, burns or other problems, often resulting in the need for additional surgery to remove the SCS.Learn MoreSEE IF YOU QUALIFY FOR COMPENSATIONAccording to lawyers representing individuals injured by Celebrex and Bextra, Pfizer’s attorneys have indicated that the pharmaceutical company is currently willing to pay as much as $500 million to resolve all outstanding cases. By contrast, Merck’s Vioxx settlement involved an agreement to pay $4.85 billion to resolve about twice as many lawsuits.According to financial reports, Pfizer reported Celebrex sales of $611 million during the first three months of 2008. Therefore, the Bextra and Celebrex settlements are unlikely to have much of a financial impact on the drug maker.

I received legal information about the drug but I have no idea how they were sent to me and I never heard anything else about it until I saw the tv ad. I reacted by having a rash and it never goes away it pops up in various places often. And not sure if this is relevant but ever since that year after I have had numerous problems with my kidney that I never had before. I was a very active high school athlete and suddenly my body was tiring very fast and I have lots of kidney infections that I still have to this day and no doctor tells me why. Does anyone know of any lawyer I can speak to or if there is anything I can do about this? Leila June 5, 2009 I was prescribed celebrex and was on it for a couple of years to treat arthritis.

I then switched to Bextra (the polyps went away in two months) and was on it until it was taken off the market. My cardiologist recommended Celebrex, which I took for about three years until June, 2008. I was constantly tired, out of breath and unable to walk more than 20 feet before I has to stop and rest. My cardiologist ordered some tests and they found a blockage in one of my arteries. Had a stent put in and so far, so good. When my cardiologist ( a new one) asked why I was still taking Celebrex, I asked him why he was asking. He said that is what caused my blockage and to get off it immediately. When I asked him what I should take, he said arthritis strength Tylenol 4-6 pills per day. One year later, no more heart problems but the arthritis, both osteo and rheumatoid, gets worse every day.

I had alot of side effect with these two medicine but neither one of the doctor would even tell me what was going on with these 2 medicine they just kep on switching medicine on me like I’m a genny pig trying anything that might help you with your arthisrtis. It’s a crying shamed that doctors can do this to people and get by with it. If they have the background like they said they do they wouldn’t be give people these prescription knowing they would harm you in the long run. Where are the board member to make should this dosen’t happen to their patient. I was taking Bextrac in 3003 by one doctor and then another doctor on Celebrex in 2005. I know both of these two doctor would have know the side effect of these medicine.

It has cost me a great deal on money. I’ve been in the ‘donut hole’ in by May and have had to pay the full amount for my meds the rest of the year. In 2006 I have ended up sending my prescription to Canada and am getting three months supply for $10 more than I get one month here.

I was placed on Celebrex 400mg. daily frot the past 10 yrs. I also would like to know how to get in on the settlement. 808llp June 2, 2009 I just found out about this class action law suit by watching tv. The commercial said, if you were taking celebrex/bextra before 2005. You may qualify for the law suit money. Does anyone know where I should begin.

I had taken 2 tablets and had a allergic reaction, however, I did not go back to the doctor; just stopped taking the medication. Now I will check my cabinets for the celebrex that I took a few years ago. I wish I had complianed by calling or returning to the doctor’s office, instead of just being scared of the side effects of these medications. virginia June 1, 2009 I took bextra, celebrex and vioxx for my erethema nodosum for a considerable amount of time Darlene June 1, 2009 I have taking Celebrex 200mg twice a day for Allergy. I have been on this medication for all most 2 years. I have stop taking this medication for about a month after reading all the comments I really got nerve about this type of Pill . I saw a AD on the T.V. stating a law suit so I decided to log in and read the information. I have been taking this medication for over a year now. I realize that everyone body reacts a little different than others. My problem is that when I try to clean my house I get shortness of breath and having this problem for about a year. When trying to plant flowers or any type of yard work I always have to take a break due to shortness of breath along with feeling that my heart was going come out of my chest due to it racing.. I thought that since I was heavy (not obese) that was causing the problem. My left arm from the shoulder all the way down to my hand was hurting real bad this is an on going problem. I kept telling myself what in the World did I do to this arm of mine. All I can say I took myself OFF of this medication and feeling a little bit better. It as only been a few days I could not understand why I have been feeling so lousy for so long. Maybe this is a wake up call to let me know that the true reason is that I was given this wrong medication . Thank you for sharing your stories about this medication. Darlene Wallace May 30, 2009 I took Bextra till they stopped making it and am on celebrex now I have never had a problem with eather one and would take Bextra again if I could get it . THOMAS May 30, 2009 I left a message earlier and I lrft a very important part. In 2006 I had to have most of my st0much and wasn’t exspected to live and will alwas have to take medications for the rest of my life due to the medication! THOMAS May 30, 2009 I have taken CELEBREX sence it started on the market 20 plus years ago. I have several strokes and heart attacks during this time. I was taking it three times a day until my strokes became common place and because its the only thing that helps I still must take it but only twice a day now with heart monitors 24/7! All this has made me almost totally home bound! kmc May 29, 2009 I didn’t suffer a heart attack, but I have a seriously enlarged bladder with enlarged uretors leading from my kidneys due to back-up from taking this medication and will have to catherize myself to prevent kidney damage in the near future. I have no flow pressure at all, I urinate like an old man .. Nothing has been said about urinary retention and all that goes with it….I think this should be included in the settlement because who wants to catherize themselves forever….increased risk of bladder infection and so on…. Paula May 29, 2009 Haveing just recently been Prescribed Celebrex 200,and reading all these comlaints, I wonder why we are still able to get celebrex???
