BAUM HEDLUND FILES LAWSUIT AGAINST PAXIL-MAKER ON BEHALF OF CHILD BORN WITH SEVERE HEART DEFECTS
August 2, 2006
Baum Hedlund filed a lawsuit against Philadelphia-based GlaxoSmithKline ("GSK"), the maker of Paxil, in Pennsylvania State Court, on behalf of its clients Anthony and Matilda Vasquez of Bedford, Texas, and their son Adrian. The family alleges
that Mrs. Vasquez's ingestion of Paxil during her pregnancy resulted in her
son being born with severe heart defects. The Vasquez family is seeking an unspecified
amount of damages against GSK for failing to warn about the risks associated
with Paxil for pregnant women and their unborn children.
