American Home Products (AHP), the manufacturer of the diet drug fen phen, has been under heavy public scrutiny since evidence of cover-ups and controversy has surrounded the once viewed “miracle drug”. Since the 1997 withdrawal of fen phen from the U.S. market, the number of diagnoses and fatalities because of the incurable condition primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH) has continued to be a problem for AHP. A Nationwide Class Action Settlement Agreement with American Home Products Corporation has received Final Judicial Approval as of January 3, 2002, allowing anyone who has taken the deadly diet drug to file a claim to receive compensation for the adverse health effects directly caused by fen phen’s use.

Patients suffering from Primary Pulmonary Hypertension (PPH) caused by Fen-Phen are NOT involved in the Nationwide Class Action Settlement Agreement with American Home Products. PPH patients must file independent lawsuits to make legal claims.

It is important to act immediately in order for our expert PPH attorneys to review your case and help recover the compensation that is rightfully yours. Please fill out the form below.
