Filing Deadline in Iowa
Iowa has a 2-year statute of limitations for product liability claims, running from when the injury was discovered or should have been discovered.
⚠️ 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.
