Filing Deadline in Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania has a 2-year statute of limitations for product liability claims. Pennsylvania's discovery rule tolls the period from when the plaintiff knew or should have known about the injury and its cause — important for patients who attributed dental damage to substance use history rather than 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.
