Why should I file a Tepezza claim?

Hearing impairment is a severe condition accompanied by emotional anguish, mental distress, and the unsettling feeling of having your life changed forever. Each of these aspects calls for compensation.

Tepezza infusion treatment is already a rather pricey endeavor, but dealing with costs associated with hearing loss or tinnitus acquired due to Tepezza treatment, can easily double your already high out-of-pocket expenses.

Someone must be held responsible for your Tepezza-related hearing loss

Having to deal with partial or permanent hearing loss, tinnitus, or other hearing-related adverse effects following your Tepezza infusion treatment is an unfair outcome for more than one reason:

• First of all, Horizon Pharmaceuticals, the manufacturer of Tepezza, did not warn either future patients or doctors about the alarmingly high risk of hearing impairment as an adverse effect. They minimized this risk to 10%, when it is shockingly higher, reaching rates as high as 65%. You were robbed of your chance to make an informed decision.

• Secondly, alongside a minimized risk of occurrence for hearing loss, the manufacturer also stated that otologic symptoms of Tepezza infusion would be mild and reversible. You most likely accepted treatment for your rare disease because you were assured that hearing-related symptoms would disappear once treatment is concluded, but now you might have to deal with these symptoms for the rest of your life.

It is only natural that you seek recovery of damages you suffered due to treatment with a drug you didn't know enough about.

If you are eligible to file a Tepezza claim, you have a chance for rightful compensation

Determining eligibility for a defective drug claim is always a complex process in which several facets are considered. While you can read below what the main criteria for eligibility are in a Tepezza claim, an expert will need to evaluate your case's specifics and relevant details. If you wish to waste no time, the shortcut you can take is to contact a specialized team with expertise and experience in evaluating product liability cases.

Depending on the severity of your auditory symptoms and the degree to which the hearing impairment affects your day-to-day life, by filing a Tepezza claim you might be able to get compensation for damages such as:

• medical bills
• lost wages
• medical aids and procedures (hearing aid, hearing tests, surgery, etc.)
• therapy
• adjustments in your home
• daily expenses

Those mentioned above are all economic damages, but apart from these, you might also be entitled to compensation for non-economic damages such as physical pain, mental and emotional suffering, decreased quality of life, and loss of good function in society.
