Filing Deadline in Alabama
Alabama applies a 2-year statute of limitations for product liability claims. The discovery rule may extend the deadline from the date you knew or reasonably should have known the dental injury was linked to Suboxone.
⚠️ Important: Many patients who used Suboxone attributed their dental problems to past substance use, not the medication. Under the discovery rule, your deadline may start from when you discovered (or should have discovered) the connection to Suboxone. The FDA's June 2022 warning is a key reference point. Consult an attorney to determine your specific deadline.
