Potential Testosterone Therapy Side Effects
Few consumers were aware of the health risks linked to these testosterone medications, until January 31, 2014, when the FDA issued a drug safety communication warning consumers about the potential connection between testosterone therapy and life-threatening problems like:
- Heart attack
- Stroke
- Death
At that time, the FDA also announced its decision to launch an investigation into the safety of testosterone replacement therapy, in order to further examine the findings of two recent studies, which linked testosterone treatment to an increased risk of life-threatening side effects among men of all ages, with and without pre-existing heart problems. If you have experienced a major complication that you believe to be linked to testosterone replacement therapy, contact an experienced product liability lawyer to discuss your legal options.
