Xarelto Claims And Compensation One Should Know


Xarelto is one of the newest blood thinners (anticoagulants) that have been approved by the FDA in 2011. Blood thinners are used to prevent blood clots from forming. But unlike the existing anticoagulants, Xarelto does not have any antidote.

Manufactured by Bayer and marketed by Janssen Pharmaceuticals (a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson), the drug has been known to cause serious bleeding that may be uncontrollable at times. Thus, patients taking Xarelto are more in the risk of facing fatal consequences. The xarelto claims ask for the financial compensation of all the medical expenses and the loss of wages.

The FDA has released many warning about Xarelto and has forced the drug makers of the medication to change their labeling numerous times.


To fight against the pharmaceutical giants, the following are the major points of argument:

  • Xarelto is an unreasonably and faulty drug
  • Janssen has been completely negligent in the manufacturing of the drug
  • Janssen and Bayer did not bother to properly test the medication, and did not warn about the potential bleeding
  • The makers concealed all evidence of the side effects associated from the government and the public
  • They misrepresented the safety of the drug in its marketing material
  • The makers falsely promoted and branded the drug even when there were reports about the negative effects of the drug

Many thousands of lawsuits are pending against Janssen Pharmaceutical, Johnson & Johnson (the parent company of Janssen), and Bayer Healthcare (who is the marketer of the drug) by individuals who file xarelto claims as a result of taking Xarelto.

The plaintiffs can ask for the following compensation in a Xarelto lawsuit:

  • Ongoing and future medical expenses
  • Pain and suffering from the injuries
  • Past and future wage loss, if any
  • Punitive damages

Lawsuits are being filed against the companies responsible for the drug Xarelto

What is Xarelto? The Prescription drug Xarelto is a blood thinner prescribed to help prevent blood clots. Janssen Pharmaceutical is the company that manufactures the blood thinner. Bayer Healthcare co-markets the drug with Janssen. Both have been named in various lawsuits. Why are Janssen and Bayer being sued? The lawsuit arises out of accusations that the companies failed to adequately warn of the risks associated with taking Xarelto. The biggest risk is severe internal bleeding for which there is currently no known cure. Ultimately, a patient could die because of it. The lawsuit claims that adequate warning would have resulted in the drug Warafin being prescribed. Warafin may still cause internal bleeding, but this problem may be treated by giving the patient high doses of Vitamin K. I take Xarelto, what should I do?
