Lawsuits seek damages from Bayer over anti-bleeding drug Trasylol

April 22, 2008

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Eight lawsuits filed in a Florida federal court are seeking damages from Bayer AG over a controversial anti-bleeding drug.

The lawsuits involving the drug Trasylol were filed in federal court in West Palm Beach by St. Louis-based law firm Carey & Danis. The firm represents families of people who died after they were given the drug following heart surgery.

Trasylol was on the market for 14 years until 2007, when Bayer stopped selling it. Several studies have documented the drug’s dangers, but Bayer has challenged some of those findings.

The lawsuits seek unspecified damages. They claim Bayer sold a defective drug and failed to issue warnings about its risks. Bayer officials did not immediately respond to an e-mail Tuesday seeking comment.
