Malcomson Law Seroxat - forget to mention the appeal
Seroxat and Infant Heart Defects
A jury in the United States have decided that Glaxo Smith Kline, who is the British manufacture of a medicine called Seroxat caused heart defects in the heart of a three (3) year old boy (Baby Lyam Kilker). The family have been awarded $2.5 Million.
Seroxat is known as Paxil in the United States. Seroxat is in tablet and liquid format and contains the active ingredient Paroxetine which is a type of anti-depressant, known as a Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor (SSRI).
Thousands of women worldwide have been prescribed antidepressants including Seroxat in pregnancy. Studies suggest that the rate of congenital heart defects in babies/children is higher in women taking Seroxat. Evidence was given in the Kilker case that the rate of birth defects was double the normal rate.
Drug regulators warned in 2005 that Seroxat could be linked to heart defects. It has been alleged that Glaxo Smith Kline had been warned in relation to the link with heart defects and therefore knew of the problem earlier than the company admits.
Baby Lyam Kilker was born in October 2005. When he was a few weeks old he stopped feeding and it was discovered that he had two holes in his heart and a very rare congenital defect called an interrupted aortic arch. He underwent two heart operations and spent five months in hospital. He will also need more major heart surgery in the future.
In August 2009 the Irish Medicines Board (IMB) advised women who want to become pregnant and are taking the anti-depressant Seroxat to discuss the risks and benefits with continued treatment with their doctor.
If you were prescribed Seroxat (Paxil) prior to conceiving and/or during your pregnancy, in a situation where you have concerns or a diagnosis in relation to your child's health it may be in your best interest to seek legal advice.

extract -
Prof Kendrick and his team said Prescription Pricing Authority data shows prescribing in England rose 36 per cent between 2000 and 2005.
The researchers said nine in 10 people with depression are taking Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors – a family of drugs which includes Seroxat and Prozac – either continuously or as repeated courses.
Prof Kendrick said: "Research found that, although these drugs are said not to be addictive, many patients find it difficult to come off them. We don't know whether long term use is harmful."
His team analysed all new depression cases between 1993 and 2005 from anonymous computerised records covering 170 GP surgeries and 1.7 million patients

Seroxat - Hugh James not litigating on the issue of side effects, but only on withdrawal !!!
Hi pboy
http://www.paxilprogress.org/forums/showthread.php?t=44291
I spoke to a guy at Hugh James the other day. They are based in Cardiff like me, funnily enough.
For some reason there is a 10 year cut off. I don't quite understand why - if anyone can explain I'd be grateful. He also said (he was patient and helpful) that they are not litigating on the issue of side effects, but on withdrawal symptoms. I have to confess that I didn't understand the distinction completely.
As I started over 10 years ago and he felt my symptoms came from side effects, he didn't feel I could be represented.
He was very nice, but I must admit I was confused by the legalities of it all.
You are within the time-frame though, so I would ring them. Check this link:

Good luck.

Antidepressant killer Shane Clancey was abusing citalopram !
Shane was taking it for about a week when he took the remaining three weeks' supply in one day, possibly an attempt at suicide. He told his mother what had happened. Two days later, she took her son to another GP. It was explained to the second doctor that Shane had taken a high dosage of Citrol two days previously. The GP prescribed Cipramil, another brand of citalopram.
As this GP was aware Shane had misused antidepressants two days previously, it was instructed on the three-week prescription that the chemist should only supply Shane with one week of the drug at a time, according to his father. But when Shane went to fill the second prescription, the chemist asked him if he wanted to get the three-week prescription filled at once, and Shane said yes. It was Friday 14 August. His family believe Shane took another high dosage of antidepressants the next day. In the early hours of 16 August, Shane Clancy carried out his attack.
"Shane was the type of person who was always careful about taking pills. If he had a Lemsip, he'd phone me to ask if he could take paracetamol as well a few hours later. I don't know if he was attempting suicide when he took three weeks' worth of antidepressants in one day. I might never know," says his father.
"I don't want to be seen as pointing the finger at the doctors or the chemist but surely if it said to only give him one week's supply at a time, the chemist should have followed that instruction."

"Dr Brophy believes the "sensationalistic" misinformation peddled by media and special interest groups about antidepressants amounts to "scientific bullying". He says, "A small group of people with a particular agenda aim to completely decimate the facts, manipulating methodologies for their own ends. The legal industry is also heavily invested. Those interests are not declared and expressed in websites and sensationalist media reports. It represents a form of scientific bullying.""
