Study Confirms Contaminated Heparin Problem

The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) recently published an article about a study done by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that the heparin recall was justified as it was contaminated with oversulfated chondroitin sulfate (OSCS).

The study focuses on more than 150 adverse reactions to the contaminated heparin. The adverse reactions included shortness of breath, hypotension, and nausea and happened within 30 minutes of taking the heparin.

If you or a loved one have experienced adverse side effects or died from contaminated heparin, contact a wrongful death lawyer immediately before the statute of limitations run out.
