Overview of Claim
A Statement of Claim was issued in the Ontario Superior Court
of Justice on May 2, 2002.
The Statement of Claim names GlaxoSmithKline PLC and GlaxoSmithKline
Inc. as Defendants.
The claim alleges that the pain and suffering experienced
by each of the thousands of Paxil users is a direct result of the failure by
GlaxoSmithKline to warn users of the addictive nature of Paxil, its inducement
of physical and psychological dependency, and its infliction of dependency/withdrawal
reactions when the dosage is terminated or reduced.
The claim further alleges that Paxil caused some people to
experience serious and unexpected dependency/withdrawal reactions. These reactions
were and are unexpected to the patient and prescribing physicians because GlaxoSmithKline
has failed to properly warn of these possible effects.
We are compiling a database of individuals who have been prescribed
Paxil who are or have experienced dependency/withdrawal reactions when the dosage
was terminated or reduced.
