Trasylol, also known as Aprotinin, was made to help reduce bleeding during complex surgeries. Approved by the FDA in 1993, Trasylol was meant to save lives but studies have proven that it has actually increased the risk of complications and has actually lead to death in many cases.

The drug was administered with a simple injection and was supposed to slow down fibrinolysis which can lead to blood clots. With the use of Trasylol the enzymes in blood that allow people to bleed are suspended and little blood is lost during surgery.

In 2007 studies suggested that Trasylol was actually causing fatal anaphylactic or anaphylactoid reactions in patients that were treated with it. After a year of investigation Trasylol was permanently removed from hospitals worldwide. Trasylol has been linked to more than 20,000 deaths.

Now victims and their families from all reaches of the globe are filing lawsuits against the maker of the drug, Bayer. Bayer has put thousands of people at significant risk and should pay up in the form of cash settlements. No one is quite sure what kind of an effect this will have on Bayer but it could be devastating.
