What is Tepezza?
Tepezza is an FDA approved drug used to treat Thyroid Eye Disease (TED), produced by drug manufacturer Horizon Therapeutics.
By doing so, symptoms of TED are reduced, such as swelling, inflammation, double vision, blurred vision and other vision problems.
The Thyroid Eye Disease treatment received FDA approval in January 2020.
There were two clinical trials conducted in Europe and the United States with over 170 participants diagnosed with Thyroid Eye Disease (TED).
What is Thyroid Eye Disease (TED)?
Thyroid Eye Disease is an eye disorder that causes swelling and inflammation to muscles, fatty tissue and connective tissue surrounding the eyes.
Thyroid Eye Disease is an autoimmune condition: a condition that causes a person’s immune system to attack their own body.
Graves Disease is closely related to Thyroid Eye Disease. Graves Eye Disease is an autoimmune condition that impacts a person’s eyes, thyroid and skin.
Graves Disease can cause hyperthyroidism (production of too many thyroid hormones) or hypothyroidism (lack of thyroid hormones), leading to major health problems including vision damage.
How is Tepezza Administered or Used?
Tepezza is given through infusions on a planned schedule. Tepezza infusions, completed by a healthcare provider, are given once every three weeks.
Eight total Tepezza infusions are prescribed for people suffering from Thyroid Eye Disease.
The Tepezza dose is 10 milligrams per kilograms (mg/kg) for the first dose.
The following seven (7) doses are an IV infusion of 20 mg/kg given every three (3) weeks.
What is the Tepezza Hearing Loss Lawsuit?
The Tepezza Hearing Loss Lawsuits claim that the Thyroid Eye Disease drug can cause permanent hearing loss or tinnitus, and Horizon Pharmaceuticals Inc failed to warn consumers about these health risks.
If you or a loved one were administered Tepezza and subsequently suffered hearing loss, hearing damage, tinnitus, or other hearing problems, you may be eligible to file a Tepezza Lawsuit.

Tepezza Hearing Loss Side Effects: Some Patients Have Suffered Permanent Hearing Damage
Research studies have found that a shocking percentage of patients who received Tepezza infusions suffered from hearing loss, tinnitus and other hearing problems.
Horizon Pharmaceuticals lists some side effects for the drug, but hearing loss from Tepezza was not included on warning labels.
Initial studies found that hearing related side effects only impacted around 10% of those who received Tepezza infusions.
In more recent studies, such as one published by the Endocrine Society, up to 65% of patients experienced hearing loss or hearing problems.
“Of the 17 patients with new hearing symptoms, four had new or worsening sensorineural hearing loss, a type of hearing loss resulting from damaged hair cells in the inner ear. Three patients had patulous eustachian tube, a disorder in which the channel that runs between the middle ear and back of the nose and throat stays open. Normally, these eustachian tubes remain closed and open only occasionally to regulate air pressure around the ear drum. After three months, symptoms of patulous eustachian tube improved, but did not completely disappear. Two patients with sensorineural hearing loss had improvement in symptoms at one and six months.”
Hearing loss from Tepezza is shocking and could be permanent in some patients.
It’s crucial that manufacturers properly warn patients of relevant safety concerns, especially a side effect as serious as permanent hearing damage.
What Hearing Problems Might Tepezza Cause?
Tepezza infusions may increase the risk of hearing loss and hearing problems such as:
Potentially permanent hearing loss
Tinnitus (constant ringing in the ears)
Hearing loss and hearing damage
Sensorineural hearing loss
Patulous Eustachian Tube Dysfunction (a condition that blocks the tubes connecting the middle ears to the upper throat)
Outside of the listed side effects, there are potential hearing loss and tinnitus related side effects associated with the Thyroid Eye Disease drug.
Has There Been a Tepezza Lawsuit Settlement?

The Tepezza Hearing Damage Lawsuit is in its early stages and it is too early to give specific estimates on settlement amounts.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the Average Tepezza Settlement Amounts per Person?
It is currently too early on in the Tepezza Litigation to determine what the average settlement amount is for hearing related side effects.
Due to the fact that Thyroid Eye Disease (TED) is a serious health condition that requires meaningful treatment, and permanent hearing loss or tinnitus are possible side effects, we expect compensation for these claims to be significant.
Based on previous product liability lawsuits, our Tepezza Lawyers estimate that the average Tepezza Lawsuit settlement amounts per person could be worth over $100,000 each.
This settlement figure is not a guarantee of financial compensation, it is only an estimate based on previous settlements for dangerous drug lawsuits.
How Much I Can Get for a Tepezza Hearing Loss Lawsuit?
In a product liability lawsuit, a person’s ability to seek financial compensation for their injuries relies upon the strength of their claim, quality of evidence, and the losses incurred.
For a Tepezza Lawsuit, financial compensation could be significant due to the potentially permanent nature of hearing loss side effects.
As mentioned previously, individual settlements could be worth over $100,000 each.
What Hearing Problems Might Tepezza Cause?
Tepezza infusions may increase the risk of hearing loss and hearing problems such as:
Potentially permanent hearing loss
Tinnitus (constant ringing in the ears)
Hearing loss and hearing damage
Sensorineural hearing loss
Patulous Eustachian Tube Dysfunction (a condition that blocks the tubes connecting the middle ears to the upper throat)
