If you or a loved one are suffering from debilitating side effects such as bone density loss, fractures, renal impairment, or kidney failure as a result of using the HIV Drug, Truvada, Onder Law Firm can help you obtain the justice you deserve.
Drug manufacturer Gilead Sciences Inc. has recently come under heavy scrutiny for their pre-exposure prophylaxis drug, Truvada. The drug, which is meant to control the spread of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), has now been linked to the development of serious kidney and bone complications.
Users of the drug are now emerging all throughout the nation in hopes of securing legal victory over this crooked company who took advantage of them for the sake of profit.
The Truvada lawsuit attorneys of Onder Law Firm want to rally together with the victims of Gilead’s deceptive business practices to fight for justice. We will amplify your voice and help you secure the maximum monetary compensation that you are entitled to.
The experienced Truvada attorneys at Onder Law Firm will aggressively pursue justice for those who have been negatively affected by the side effects of Truvada.
There are two main medicinal components that Truvada uses to stop the replication of HIV-infected cells:
These two components help protect people that are in high-risk circumstances of being infected with HIV and — in tandem with other medications — can help control its development in those that already have it. These medications work by reducing the activity of an enzyme called reverse transcriptase, which is a particular enzyme that HIV-infected cells use to replicate.
By blocking reverse transcriptase, FTC and TDF prevent HIV from multiplying, and in some instances, can stop its growth altogether.
While this may seem like a wonder drug, TDF has recently been shown to be the cause of several kidney and bone complications, namely renal impairment, kidney failure, bone fractures, and bone density loss. In fact, around 20,000 patients taking TDF-based medications — which Truvada is one of them — have been diagnosed with kidney or bone diseases.
Other related medications which are causing similar complications because of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate include:
Despite the internal complications that TDF enables, Truvada has proven to be a success, earning Gilead $11 billion in profits on an annual basis.

Aside from withholding important information regarding the dangerous side effects that users could experience from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Gilead committed a number of improper acts.
When the company created TDF-based medicine in the early 2000s, they also created another medicinal component called tenofovir alafenamide fumarate (TAF) that is just as effective as TDF-based medicine due to its smaller, safer dosage requirements.
In order to maximize profits, however, Gilead released TDF-based medications like Truvada first, and then decided to wait until the patent expired around 2015 to begin selling the TAF-based medicines as a “new and improved” formula.
Since 2001, Gilead knowingly marketed a drug known to cause serious side effects to grab as much cash as the company could, and then attempted to sell a better product when its patent expired in 2015.
Because of this, many users of their TDF-based products have developed bone and kidney problems that have cost them much more than medical bills.
As with any product liability claim, a Truvada lawsuit attorney must be able to accurately determine whether the manufacturer, marketer, and/or distributor was liable for the victim’s injury. This process is no different for Truvada claims.
There are three types of product liability claims an attorney must consider:

Since TDF-based medications require large doses to be effective, the excess is usually washed away through the kidneys. This can then cause:
Bone complications have also been linked to the use of Truvada, with symptoms like:
