Liability Considerations in El Paso
Zantac Litigation in El Paso
El Paso's unique border geography means many residents purchased OTC ranitidine from both U.S. pharmacies and Mexican farmacias, creating complex documentation situations. Military personnel at Fort Bliss who used ranitidine through military pharmacy systems have particularly strong prescription documentation through MHS Genesis records. Texas applies Daubert under Tex. R. Evid. 702. The federal Zantac MDL (No. 2924, S.D. Florida) was largely dismissed in 2022 after Judge Robin Rosenberg excluded plaintiffs' causation experts under Daubert. However, the Delaware Superior Court under Judge Vivian Medinilla continues to actively hear Zantac cases and has allowed causation experts to proceed. Defendants Sanofi, Boehringer Ingelheim, GSK, and Pfizer are all actively litigating in Delaware. For most claimants, filing in Delaware Superior Court through national plaintiffs' counsel is now the primary path forward.
Documentation for El Paso Zantac Claimants
El Paso Zantac claimants should gather U.S. pharmacy records from Walmart Pharmacy, Walgreens, HEB Pharmacy, and CVS, as well as military pharmacy records if applicable through Fort Bliss medical records. TTUHSC El Paso cancer records documenting bladder, esophageal, stomach, or colorectal cancer diagnoses are critical evidence. Texas's 2-year SOL requires immediate consultation with qualified Zantac plaintiffs' counsel.
