Yaz birth control lawsuits to be moved to Toledo, Ohio | Ohio Yaz injury lawyers

According to Reuters, a motion was filed on July 24, 2009 to consolidate and transfer all Yasmin and Yaz product liability litigation to Chief Judge James G. Carr of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio. The motion was filed before the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation in Washington, D.C.
The lawsuits involving Yaz and Yasmin birth controls name Bayer Pharmaceuticals Corporation and other Bayer related companies as the defendants in the case.

Young, previously healthy women have approached our Ohio Yaz injury lawyers with serious health problems including blood clots, strokes, the need for gallbladder removal, stroke, and heart attack while taking Yaz birth control. We have filed lawsuits on behalf of these women.

In 2008, the FDA has determined that Bayer Healthcare Pharmaceuticals, Inc., in a glossy, slick television campaign overstated the therapeutic benefits of YAZ while minimizing the serious risk women using the drug face. The FDA forced Bayer to run corrective advertisements that come closer to setting the record straight. As the FDA pointed out in a warning letter to the company, YAZ has not been approved for treating common premenstrual syndrome and overstates the case for using the drug to treat all acne.
