Lexapro Lawsuit May Be an Option for SSRI Users Who Delivered Children with Birth Defects

A Lexapro lawsuit may be an option for women who took Lexapro during pregnancy and delivered children with birth defects, such as heart defects or spina bifida. Due to a reported link between Lexapro and birth defects, the attorneys working with Class Action.org are available to review claims of potential Lexapro lawsuits from women who took the drug during pregnancy and delivered children with birth defects. To find out if you may be able to participate in a Lexapro lawsuit for your child’s birth defects, visit http://www.classaction.org/lexapro.html and complete the short form on the right for a no cost, no obligation review of your claim. 

Potentially, Lexapro lawsuits would seek compensation for damages stemming from the child’s birth defects. Allegedly, the following are among the potential Lexapro birth defects: holes in the heart; congenital heart defects; transposition of the great arteries; heart valve problems; cleft palates; club foot; and anal atresia. Lexapro has also reportedly been linked to a condition known as omphalocele in which the child’s intestines or abdominal organs protrude through the navel, as well as craniosynostosis, a potential Lexapro birth defect which causes an abnormally shaped head.  

If you took Lexapro during pregnancy and delivered a child with birth defects, you may be able to participate in a Lexapro lawsuit to recover compensation for damages. Heart problems and other Lexapro birth defects can require costly surgeries and other medical treatment, which can place an unwanted financial burden on the child’s family. Those who elect to pursue a Lexapro lawsuit, however, may be able to make a claim for their medical bills and other damages.
