In March 2005 the FDA issued a public health advisory for patients using the widely prescribed cholesterol lowering medication Crestor. It was announced that Crestor may cause serious heart related injuries and even death.
If you or a loved one took Crestor and suffered injury or death, you and your family may be entitled to financial compensation to help with medical costs, treatment, lost wages and other expenses.
