Elmiron Maculopathy Lawsuit
Millions of patients have been prescribed Elmiron to treat a bladder condition called interstitial cystitis (IC). There is credible evidence that Elmiron causes forms of maculopathy, a condition that affects the retina. Early symptoms include blurred vision, dark spots, trouble focusing, difficulty reading, and other impairments. The potential risks of Elmiron were known as early as 2015, but drugmaker Janssen Pharmaceuticals did not change the product label for Elmiron until mid-2020. If you or a loved one took Elmiron and have been diagnosed with maculopathy, you could be owed compensation for medical costs, pain and suffering, lost wages, and other damages.

Frequently Asked Questions
We understand that you may have questions about whether you have a case or the timing involved with taking legal action. Here are answers to what many of our clients want to know.
Our attorneys will take care of filing the legal documents required for your claim. From a legal perspective, though, the following parties can file a civil action in this area:
The victim if they are an adult with the mental capacity to do so
The victim's parents if the victim is a minor
The person who has power of attorney for the victim if the victim is incapacitated
The victim's spouse, parent, adult child, or another beneficiary if the victim is deceased
The deadline for bringing legal action is called the statute of limitations, which varies by state. For example, the timing could date back to when the injured party received the diagnosis or when their symptoms first began.
That's why it's important to work with lawyers who know how to hold large companies accountable. At Cooper Elliott, we understand the complex legal requirements involved with filing a claim, and we know what it takes to win.
