Children's Advil/ Motrin and Stevens Johnson Syndrome

Children's Advil and Children's Motrin are pain killers marketed by Wyeth and both contain ibuprofen. These oral medications are marketed towards children and both can cause Stevens Johnson Syndrome.

 

If your children are taking Children's Advil or Children's Motrin we urge you to learn more about these medications and their possible side effects. If you notice anything out of the ordinary with your childrens' bodies then you should immediately seek medical attention. Stop taking all medication.

If you think that you may have been a victim of the side effects of taking Advil or Motrin then you need to contact us and we will discuss your options. Even if you are unsure as to whether you have a case we advise you to contact an experienced SJS lawyer. You may be entitled to compensation for your medical expenses, pain, and suffering.
