Jury Award 10.5 Million to Accutane Victim

The lawyers and staff of Ennis & Ennis P.A. would like to congratulate attorney Mike Hook and his staff for their tremendous verdict in the amount of $10.5 million for a 24 year old Utah woman who was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis after taking Accutane. This has been a well kept dirty secret by the manufacturer Hoffman-La Roche for many years. We are glad to see these cases come to light and hopefully the word will spread to teenagers and young adults who are still on the drug or are thinking of taking the drug. We have been working with Mike and his staff since 2003 on these cases and it has been a long hard fight. The manufacturer has stonewalled the litigants time and again and it is good to see these cases finally get to trial and let the truth come out. Mike and his team have won 3 straight trials in New Jersey state court in the amount of $2.5 million, $7.5 million and yesterdays verdict of $10.5 million. We are convinced, based on our research, that there are many more victims out there who have not correlated their illness to the drug accutane. Accutane has received much publicity for side effects including depression, suicide and birth defects. The real dark secrets lie in the correlation between accutane and IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease), Ulcerative Colitis, Crohn's, Liver and Kidney damage. Ennis & Ennis, P.A. is still offering free nationwide consultations to victims of accutane by calling 1-800-856-6405 or visiting our website http://www.the-accutane-lawyer.com and filling out our free online case evaluation form.

    I have seen a lot of information about this drug causing lots of horrible side effects. I originally found this drug on http://www.medication-side-effects.info which is a great site for finding out about harmful drugs and is how I found out about the Ennis law firm. I originally started researching Accutane for my sister who was taking it. Thank God she has not had any of the more serious side effects. However it has caused her hair to thin considerably.

      TJ thanks for the comments. I am glad to hear your sister has not had any life threatening or life changing side effects. We have received numerous calls about hair thinning or hair loss. Make sure she tells her Dr. about this and get a recomendation from them about what to do for the hair thinning. To keep updated on accutane news feel free to refer to ennislaw.com or the-accutane-lawyer.com. Tell your sister good luck.
