Who is Held Liable in a Dangerous Drug Case?
- The liable party in dangerous drug lawsuits is usually one of the following:
- If the drug manufacturer/pharmaceutical company who failed to test the drug properly or report adequate testing results is at fault, this could lead to a product liability case.
