Lawsuits and Recalls Over Chantix

Chantix is being recalled for distributing cancer-causing chemicals to users who have used this drug to stop smoking. The users of this drug are looking to stop smoking to avoid the harsh cancer-causing chemicals involved, yet this drug also exposes users to risky cancer-causing chemicals.

Here at Van Law Firm, we can help get you compensated if you or someone you know has been seriously injured or died from using the drug Chantix.

What Is Chantix?

Chantix was created by Pfizer in 2006 with the goal of getting users to stop smoking and providing them with a healthier quality of life. However, this drug has proven to contain high levels of N-nitroso-varenicline, a cancer-causing chemical which led to the need for Chantix to be recalled.

Users report the side effects of this drug to involve strange behavior after use, with some even committing suicide. The FDA has confirmed these cancer-causing chemicals have caused these side effects and initiated a recall on Chantix. The FDA also now requires Pfizer to add a warning on Chantix boxes pertaining to these side effects.

Chantix Recalls

There was a Chantix recall in July 2021. Recalls are given to certain products or medications that need to be pulled from the market for a particular reason. The goal of recalling a product is to ensure the safety of the public by preventing them from ingesting harmful chemicals or helping them avoid imminent injury.

A recall could entitle a Chantix user to compensation for injuries they incurred. Some recalls end in multi-district litigation wherein multiple people can file for damages from the company whose product or medication has been recalled.

Client Testimonials

These guys are amazing. Helped me throughout the process. Always there when I need help. Inititailly called a law firm (the one that has lots of ads on the radio), but they declined my case. Van Law Firm accepted my case without a second thought! Kudos to Daniel, my case manager, and Amanda who expedited my payment process. Highly recommended.

Milby Mags

Got in an accident at the beginning of the year and they have been awesome, especially with it being my first accident and me being like this. They have been very communicated, stayed in contact with me the whole time, giving me updates when there were any and even when there weren’t and answered any question I had. I would recommend them to anyone. Everyone I have talked to there has been very friendly. I would give them a 10 out of 10.

Ethan Gullet

They made sure that my insurance company covered what I paid for them to which included the gap for my car that was totaled. My medical costs were taken care of and reduced substantially so I was able to get more on my settlement. My case manager, Will Garcia, was always helpful in assisting me and answering any questions I had. They really did an amazing job with my case. I would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of this type of legal help. Most lawyers do not help you with the recovery of the car and rental etc. They are amazing.
