Elmiron Drug Litigation

Popular Bladder Medication Linked to Retina Damage and Vision Loss.

In October 2019, the American Academy of Ophthalmology released a report that showed a correlation between taking the popular drug Elmiron and vision loss or ocular damage. Elmiron is the only FDA-approved medication for Interstitial cystitis, an irreparable condition that causes chronic pain in the bladder and/or pelvis area.

Studies found that people who take the drug Elmiron, for an extended period of time may develop eye damage. A study done by Kaiser found that Elmiron users developed a degenerative disorder called Pigmentary Maculopathy and other similar diagnoses.

Those affected by Pigmentary Maculopathy may experience the following symptoms:

  • Blindness
  • Blurry Vision
  • Dark Spots
  • Difficulty reading
  • Night Blindness
  • Loss of close vision
  • Visual dimming

Over one million people in the United States are said to have been diagnosed with Interstitial cystitis, majority of which are women. As the only FDA-approved medication on the market, it is estimated that at least a 25% of sufferers have used Elmiron.

Elmiron is manufactured by a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson called Janssen Pharmaceuticals. The company only recently (June 2020), updated their drug warning to include possible eye damage and vision lossin Elmiron users.

If you have used the drug Elmiron for at least one year, and have been diagnosed with Pigmentary Maculopathy or other vision-debilitating diagnoses, or are experiencing symptoms, contact our attorneys immediately for a free, confidential consultation.
