C.B. Fleet Company is the maker of Fleet Phospho-soda and is one of the best-selling bowel cleansing products in the world.

Lora Joyce Goza, Plaintiff in this case, went to Scott & White Hospital in Temple, Texas in May of 2005 for a routine cancer screening colonoscopy. She took Fleets Phospho-Soda Bowel Prep solution, as part of the prep for this procedure. The Phospho-Soda combined with Goza's blood pressure medication and created permanent kidney damage and eventually kidney failure.

"This is a clear case of negligence on the part of a large corporation that is more focused on protecting their best-selling product than protecting peoples' lives," said Jeffrey Breit of the law firm of Breit Drescher & Imprevento in Norfolk, Virginia. "Instead of warning physicians and patients like Ms. Goza about the dangers of their product, they chose to ignore the vast amount of information that indicated major problems so they could keep meeting their sales goals. Their negligence has brought immense pain and discomfort to Ms. Goza and will almost certainly shorten her life by several years."
