Children’s Tylenol Liver Failure Lawsuit – A family has filed a personal injury…

Posted on November 1, 2013 by Principal Law Group, LLP Children’s Tylenol Liver Failure Lawsuit -

A family has filed a personal injury lawsuit based on claims that their son suffered liver failure after taking Children’s Tylenol for just three days.

The complaint, filed as part of the multidistrict litigation (MDL) currently pending for Tylenol liver failure lawsuits in the federal court system in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, claims that the child’s family was not properly warned of potential Children’s Tylenol side effects.

According to the lawsuit filed on behalf of Jacob Richardson, he only used Children’s Tylenol for three days before suffering acute liver failure on October 10, 2011. The suit adopts claims raised in a Master Complaint filed earlier this year alleging that Johnson & Johnson, McNeil Consumer Healthcare, and McNeil-PPC are guilty of violating consumer protection laws, strict liability, negligent failure to warn, breach of warranty, negligent design defects, fraud, fraudulent concealment, negligence, and negligent misrepresentation.
