Fen Phen is the chemical combination of fenfluramine and phentermine, popularly
sold under brand names Pondimin and Redux. These drugs, produced by, were recalled
on September 15, 1997 after numerous cases of PPH in Fen Phen users were discovered.
The recall was driven by a study that found that thirty percent had taken Fen
Phen out of all PPH patients studied. After the results of this study were publicized,
the FDA received another 75 Primary Pulmonary Hypertension reports from people
who had taken Fen Phen.
Investigation into the drug manufacturer's marketing history for Pondimin and
Redux has revealed several situations were the company knew of the risks associated
with Fen Phen, but chose to keep this information hidden from public view. The
FDA reports that the company intentionally miscoded patient reports of PPH injuries
and failed to adequately conduct medical monitoring for potential drug side
effect dangers. PPH attorneys are familiar with this litigation and can develop
a favorable case for you.
