For oral contraceptives, millions of women place their trust in pharmaceutical companies. Those drugs are supposed to do their job -- prevent pregnancy - and do nothing to harm the user. Sadly, that is not the case with Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella.
Such birth control pills include a drug named DRSP, or drospirenone, which is believed to cause blood clots, high blood pressure, strokes, heart attacks and even death in women who take Yaz, Yasmin or Ocella for birth control.
Those suffering from these defective drugs have a legal right to press for full and fitting economic recovery for their setbacks, such as medical costs, lost wages and pain and suffering. To do this, they may need to engage a defective drugs attorney from Jim S. Adler & Associates, a longtime personal injury law firm serving Texans across the state from offices in Dallas, Houston and San Antonio.
A Yasmin, Yaz or Ocella defective drugs legal action can hold negligent pharmaceutical companies responsible in the legal realm. They include Bayer, the manufacturer of Yaz and Yasmin, and Barr, which produces the generic brand of the drug called Ocella.
Not only are such drugs dangerous, but Bayer received complaints from the Food and Drug Administration and the attorneys general of 27 states due to its advertising. Bayer's ads suggested that its birth control pills eased PMS (premenstrual syndrome), PMDD (premenstrual dysphoric disorder) and mild acne. None of these claims was true, and Bayer was forced to run additional advertising to counter them.
Users of Yaz, Yasmin or Ocella should be alert to these side effects and symptoms: confusion, sudden dizziness, fainting, sudden shortness of breath, tingling, weakness or numbness in the legs or arms, weakness on one side of the body, slurred speech, severe headaches, vision problems, coughing up blood, pain, warmth or swelling in the groin or calf and chest pain or pain in the jaw or left arm.
Those with such symptoms should see a physician immediately. At a later time they also should consider alerting a defective drugs attorney to seek the economic recovery to which they are entitled under the law. - 30427
