Although the settlement is for the U.S. only, we\u2019re pleased to see it has happened.<\/p>\n<p>The settlement has been agreed without any admission of liability from the two companies behind the drug, Bayer AG and Johnson &amp; Johnson. They reportedly maintain that the drug is fine for use and strongly deny the allegations that have been made against them. That includes previous allegations of a \u201ccover-up\u201d where important information was reportedly withheld from regulators.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Xarelto compensation settlements is great news<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>News of the $775m in Xarelto compensation settlements is great to hear. It should hopefully serve as some form of justice for those who have suffered problems. Some patients have suffered internal bleeding, including bleeds on the brain. Some patients have died during use of the drug as well.<\/p>\n<p>For a long time, the safety of the drug has been in question. Although the co-developers of the medication, Bayer and J&amp;J, appear to be standing by its safety, no one can ignore the thousands who have reported problems.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Will the Xarelto compensation settlements help the UK cases?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The U.S. Xarelto compensation settlements don\u2019t necessarily have a direct impact on the UK cases we\u2019re fighting for justice in. The UK and the U.S. have separate legal jurisdictions, so we can\u2019t really rely on the settlement over there to have a direct impact for people here.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also been made without any admission of liability as well.<\/p>\n<p>That being said, it\u2019s positive that a settlement has been reached. It\u2019s encouraging news for victims here in the UK, but there\u2019s still plenty to be done over here. We still have to prove our cases in the UK jurisdiction, and that can be harder when compared to the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>If you live in England or Wales and you have suffered problems from the use of Xarelto \/ Rivaroxaban, make sure you get in touch for help as soon as you can.
