A case going to trial in New Jersey against the manufacturer of the acne drug Accutane is expected to draw additional attention to the many Accutane lawsuits being filed accross the country.

Actor James Marshall claims that the use of Accutane caused to have his colon removed and ruined his career.  Actor Martin Sheen is expected to testify on his behalf along with actors Brian Dennehy and Rob Reiner

Drug maker Roche took Accutane off the market in 2009 but lawyers across the country have been bringing lawuits for damages.  Accutane is believed to casue serious injuries including Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis.
