Today the Judicial Panel on Multi-District Litigation will hear arguments on a petition to consolidate the Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella product liability cases. The Petition seeks to have the litigation consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio. The hearing will be held in Richmond, Virginia. A decision by the MDL Judicial Panel is expected two to four weeks after the hearing.
The Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella litigation at issue involves lawsuits filed in federal courts across the country by women who have been seriously injured by these birth control pills. The lawsuits allege that the progestin in Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella called drosperinone or drsp is unique to these products and carries a greater risk of venous thromboembolism (deep vein thrombosis, stroke, pulmonary embolism) than other oral contraceptives. Some of the lawsuits also involve women who suffered severe gallbladder disease requiring gallbladder removal.
The Allen Law Firm would be happy to answer any questions you may have about the Yaz, Yamin and Ocella lawsuits and provide a free case evaluation for anyone who has suffered stroke, pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, heart attack, gallbladder removal or pancreatitis after using these birth control pills.
