Maryland Actos Bladder Cancer Lawsuits
|
 A Maryland Actos bladder cancer lawsuit allows a person who has developed bladder cancer after using Actos to seek justice. Bladder cancer is a side effect of Actos, and if it can be shown that you developed bladder cancer as a result of using Actos, Maryland law allows you to sue its manufacturer, Takeda Pharmaceuticals.

Deadlines for Maryland Actos Bladder Cancer Lawsuits Maryland law sets deadlines for when lawsuits must be filed. These deadlines are called statutes of limitations. Because a Maryland Actos lawsuit is bought as a products liability claim, it is subject to a three-year statute of limitations. Maryland also recognizes the "discovery rule." This means that the statute of limitations begins running once a plaintiff knows or should know he or she has been wronged.
A Maryland Actos lawsuit is brought as a product liability claim because Actos had an inadequate warning of the greatly increased risk of bladder cancer after prolonged use. Maryland product liability lawsuits usually include claims for negligence, breach of warranty, and strict liability.
Please note: exactly when a cause of action accrues under Maryland law, and therefore also the deadline for bringing a claim for having developed bladder cancer as an Actos side effect, varies based on the specific facts of each person's case.
