Invokana Wrongful Death Lawsuit. Scott Martin from Alabama alleges that the side effects of the blockbuster diabetic drug Invokana caused the wrongful death of his wife. According to Martin, his wife suffered severe diabetic ketoacidosis and congestive heart failure, leading to her death.
Martin filed his claim, on behalf of himself and his late wife, Sheila Martin, in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey, naming Johnson & Johnson and its Janssen Pharmaceuticals subsidiary as defendants.
Martin claims that Janssen and Johnson & Johnson actively hid the Invokana risks from patients and doctors, providing false and misleading information on the warning label.
