Digitek Recall – a Quiet Affair

Digitek released little information even after the recall of all Digitek tablets and the later recall of every single drug manufactured at the plant where Digitek was produced following the closing of two manufacturing plants and a packaging plant. Many patients have said that they did not learn that Digitek had been taken off the market until weeks later and they only learned about the recall through their physician or pharmacist.

Symptoms & Side Effects

Exposure to double strength Digitek pills could cause digoxin toxicity which could result in nausea, vomiting, dizziness, extremely low blood pressure, instability, bradycardia, heart attack, stroke, and even death. In an analysis of reports submitted to the FDA, Digitek was linked to at least 667 deaths between April and June of 2008. Digitek was cited as the primary suspect in the death of hundreds of patients.

Patients taking Digitek should contact their physicians immediately for medical advice. If you or a love one has been injured by the use of recalled Digitek tablets, you may have a case. Call our helpful legal professionals at (888) 749-5050 or contact us online.
