Who Else May Be Liable?
Novo Nordisk or Eli Lilly faces the main liability, but additional entities could be responsible:

Medical Malpractice vs. Product Liability
Understanding the distinction between negligent prescribing and product liability:
- Product liability addresses the defective product and holds the company strictly liable
- Medical malpractice targets the prescriber and demands evidence of a departure from accepted medical practice
- Both claims may be filed together
Informed Consent
A critical element in medical malpractice claims is whether proper consent was obtained. If the prescriber did not warn you about the risk of gastroparesis, pancreatitis, or other serious side effects, there could be a negligence case in addition to the product liability case.
