Xigduo and Diabetic Ketoacidosis

Health officials have reported that ketoacidosis has occurred in over 100 patients who were treated with diabetes drugs in the sodium glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor class.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a warning for patients on Xigduo XR, and advised seeking emergency medical attention for symptoms like nausea, unusual fatigue, abdominal pain, confusion, breathing problems, and more.

The European Medicines Agency (EMA) also warned that 101 cases of ketoacidosis had been reported in patients on SGLT2 inhibitors, and stated:

“In a number of these reports blood sugar levels were only moderately increased. These uncharacteristic blood levels could delay diagnosis and treatment. … All cases were serious and some required hospitalization.”

What is the problem?

The Schmidt Firm, PLLC is a nationally recognized class action law firm based in Texas. However, our trial attorneys are not pursuing justice for our clients through a Xigduo XR class action at this time. Instead, we are filing individual lawsuits and we are only accepting cases involving very serious injuries, such as:

About Class Actions

Most class action lawsuits are filed by a “class representative” and attorneys argue for compensation on behalf of everyone with the same injury. Class actions make sense when the desired payout is less than the cost of filing an individual lawsuit.

Why Our Law Firm is Filing Individual Lawsuits as Opposed to a Class Action

Our attorneys are concerned about the disadvantages of class actions for people with severe injuries. Members of a class action might have to accept a “low-ball” settlement, high attorneys’ fees, and watch most of the settlement or jury award divided among everyone else in the lawsuit.

Our lawyers file individual lawsuits as opposed to class actions because we believe people with severe injuries deserve an attorney who is committed to their case. We specialize in holding drug-makers accountable for selling defective medications and failing to warn about side effects.
