What Is Belviq?

Belviq is a brand name for lorcaserin, a diet pill developed by Arena Pharmaceuticals, Inc., primarily used to treat overweight adults. It is also prescribed to adults with weight-related health conditions, such as type 2 diabetes or hypertension.

Why Is There a Belviq Lawsuit?

In January 2020, the FDA discovered a link between Belviq and an increased risk of cancer among its users, which led to the drug's withdrawal from the U.S. market. Additionally, Belviq has been associated with other serious side effects, such as heart valve damage and psychiatric disorders. As a result, patients who have taken Belviq and suffered from these or other severe side effects are pursuing legal action against the drug's manufacturers.

Who Is Eligible to File a Belviq Lawsuit?

Those who have taken Belviq and suffered from lung, colorectal, or pancreatic cancer may be eligible to file a Belviq lawsuit. Additionally, family members of individuals who have died due to Belviq-related complications may also be eligible to file a wrongful death lawsuit. It's important to note that eligibility criteria may vary based on factors such as the individual's medical history and the specific circumstances of their Belviq use. Consulting with an experienced attorney is the best way to determine whether someone can file a Belviq lawsuit.
