If you have been injured by Fosamax ® side effects you may be entitled to compensation.
Fosamax and other drugs called bisphosphonates are often prescribed to prevent osteoporosis in women. These drugs are supposed to help maintain bone density after menopause, but when taken for an extended period of time, these drugs can actually damage the very bones they are supposed to protect. Women who have taken a bisphosphonate for three years or longer have an increased risk of sudden femur fractures. The femur or thighbone is the largest and strongest bone in the body. Normally, it takes a significant amount of force to break this bone—the kind of force experienced in a car crash, motorcycle crash, or fall from a height. However, the FDA has warned that women who have a history of bisphosphonate use may break a bone while engaging in simple activities like getting out of bed or walking to the mailbox.

These advertisements claimed that, no matter how bad or minor your acne might've been, Yaz was a realistic solution. This isn't actually true. The FDA never approved this drug for the treatment of minor acne, only severe acne.

NHTSA Gives Information on Air Bags
Oftentimes children injured by airbags when they are in the front seat and an airbag deploys. Remember that, on an average sized adult, the airbag is going to hit them primarily in the chest. There's a lot of force involved in being hit with an airbag. It's much more than the average person could throw in a punch, to give you a point of reference. On a child, however, that airbag is likely to deploy directly in their face, which could cause serious injuries or death. Even if you're just driving across a parking lot, a child needs to be in the backseat in an appropriate child safety device.
