Heartburn Drug Injury Lawyers
Harmed By a Heartburn Drug? Let Us Take Away Your Worry.
More than 15 million Americans take proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) to treat heartburn. These drugs work to relieve heartburn and acid reflux by reducing the amount of stomach acid the body produces, but they can cause serious problems in some patients. PPIs have been linked to significant health problems, including an increased risk of chronic kidney disease.
Our team is here to help if you or a loved one is dealing with side effects caused by heartburn medication. Since opening our doors in 1989, we’ve been committed to helping our clients in any way possible, and we’ve secured more than $500 million in settlements and verdicts on their behalf. Through every step of your case, we will put your interests first as we pursue the best possible result for your case.

The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Internal Medicine published the results of a heartburn medication study that linked PPI use to an increased risk of chronic kidney disease. According to the study, patients who took PPIs once per day were 15% more likely to develop chronic kidney disease, and patients who took PPIs twice per day were at a 46% increased risk.
