Zantac / Ranitidine (NDMA Cancer) Lawsuit in Missouri

Statute of Limitations

Missouri has a 5-year statute of limitations for product liability claims (RSMo § 516.120) — significantly longer than any other state in the Zantac pool. The discovery rule applies. Missouri courts use a Daubert-influenced standard for expert testimony. Missouri's St. Louis Circuit Court and surrounding jurisdictions have historically been active pharmaceutical and medical device litigation venues. The 5-year SOL is a major strategic advantage for Missouri Zantac claimants.
