Why Silver Spring residents are pursuing GLP-1 claims
Across Silver Spring, doctors prescribed Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound aggressively over the past several years for diabetes and weight loss. Many patients trusted those prescriptions only to develop life-changing injuries: gastroparesis, pancreatitis, intestinal obstruction, gallbladder disease, sudden vision loss, or worse.
Lawsuits allege that Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly knew of these risks and failed to warn patients and prescribing physicians. The federal cases are consolidated as MDL 3094 in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania — putting Silver Spring residents geographically and procedurally close to the action.
Injuries that may qualify
If you live in or near Silver Spring and were prescribed a GLP-1 drug, you may qualify if you were diagnosed with gastroparesis (stomach paralysis), severe or recurrent pancreatitis, intestinal obstruction or ileus, gallbladder disease requiring surgery, aspiration pneumonia during anesthesia, NAION (sudden vision loss), or medullary thyroid cancer.
Statute of limitations in Maryland
Maryland's three-year statute of limitations for personal-injury and product-liability claims applies, generally measured from the date of injury or its reasonable discovery.
