This medicine, also called Aprotinin, was originally designed to reduce blood loss during heart surgery. It is made by Bayer Pharmaceuticals, and is one of its leading products. A 2006 study released by the New England Journal of Medicine has some alarming results: Trasylol / Aprotinin causes severe kidney damage, brain damage, and heart failure. In other words, people who received this drug to help them may die, or have severe organ failure because the drug can cause severe blood clotting.

In fact, the side effects of this drug are so severe that it doubles the risk of kidney failure, and doubles the risk of stroke. It also increases the risk of heart attack and heart failure by over fifty percent!

You need to know the importance of contacting a qualified attorney immediately. In Tennessee and Kentucky, there is a one year statute of limitations for bringing a legal claim against a product manufacturer. Although that may seem like a lot of time it really isn't. Any competent attorney will want to gather your medical records, meet with you, get a complete medical history, get all of your medical bills, do research, and many other things vital to successfully pursuing a claim. This takes time, so waiting until the last moment to contact an attorney puts you at a disadvantage.
