Digitek MDL Established

The United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation has ordered that all federal lawsuits related to defective, double strength Digitek (commonly known as Digitalis or Digoxin ) be moved to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia. This consolidation comes after an April 2008 recall on all lots of the prescription drug after discovery that some tablets twice as thick as normal contained double the appropriate amount of medication.
