Product Liability

Meaning

Product Liability, in the context of pharmaceutical and supplement manufacturing within the hormonal health space, refers to the legal responsibility of a manufacturer, distributor, or seller for placing a defective or unreasonably dangerous product into the hands of a consumer. This legal doctrine ensures accountability for harm caused by a medication or supplement that is flawed in its design, manufacturing, or labeling, including inadequate warnings about potential side effects or contraindications. For compounded hormones and over-the-counter supplements, the regulatory and liability landscape is often more complex, requiring heightened scrutiny of quality control and ingredient sourcing.
