If you were adversely affected by insufficient Ortho Evra® warnings and would like to file an Ortho Evra® birth control patch lawsuit, please contact Phillips and Associates today for a case evaluation.
Ortho-McNeil Pharmaceutical, the manufacturer of the Ortho Evra® patch, listed warnings on the product’s labeling information that did not fully disclose the risks of the birth control patch. Because of this, many women were unaware of the scope of the risks they were going to undertake. If you are one of those women and believe you were adversely affected by the product, you should pursue an Ortho Evra® birth control patch lawsuit.
Although similarly classified, an Ortho Evra® patch lawsuit greatly differs from other pharmaceutical litigation. In many legal cases against pharmaceutical companies, patients have pre-existing conditions that may have contributed to their alleged injuries. For example, in cases in which antidepressants are blamed for a patient’s suicide, it is likely that the patient was already suffering from a psychological or psychiatric problem. It is possible that the pre-existing condition, not the prescription, was the cause of the suicide. This is not the case in a birth control patch lawsuit. In most instances, the victim in an Ortho Evra® patch lawsuit is a healthy woman with no significant health issues that could have caused her sudden death. Without sufficient Ortho Evra® warnings, healthy women unknowingly undertake serious health risks.
At Phillips and Associates, we are committed to helping former contraceptive patch users and their families hold the manufacturer, doctors, and any other offenders responsible for the lack of adequate Ortho Evra® patch warnings that may have lead to injury or even death.
