Watson Recalls Fentanyl Patches, Again




Yet again defective fentanyl pain patches have been pulled off of the shelves, this time by Watson. Defective patches can leak fentanyl, a substance 100 times more powerful than morphine, into the blood causing overdose death.

These patches should only be used as a last resort by end stage cancer patients and those with such severe chronic pain that nothing else works.

Our firm has reviewed far too many overdose deaths as a result of these defective patches. If a loved one suffered an overdose you MUST get an autopsy and have the blood drawn so the fentanyl levels can be measured. Then contact Bagolie Friedman Fentanyl Overdose Lawyers for a confidential and free consultation.
