AstraZeneca - Seroquel: deep in the pancreas of Texas

A Texas woman is claiming the medication she took for a mental disorder caused her to develop diabetes, and says the medication's risks were not worth the benefits.

Misty Peters was taking the drug Seroquel, which is an atypical anti-psychotic that is used for the treatment of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and other "off-label" uses.

Peters filed a product liability lawsuit against AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals LP on Oct. 15 in the Beaumont Division of the Eastern District of Texas.
