Williams Kherkher - Ortho Evra Lawyers Keeping Tabs on Updates

Ortho Evra lawyers all over the United States have been inundated with stories, potential clients and claims evaluations in recent years due to the problems that have been linked to the Ortho Evra birth control patch and the seriously harmful side effects that it's alleged to be causing in women. Ortho Evra lawyers not only hear these stories from clients, but also the media and the ultimate source for potentially problematic products - the FDA.

Below is a look at the FDA's involvement with the Ortho Evra birth control patch, but if you've been injured as a result of using this product, contact the Ortho Evra lawyers at Williams Kherkher today to schedule a free initial consultation.

The FDA and Ortho Evra - Lawyers Ready to Help You

The best source for current and past FDA information is at their Web site, http://www.fda.gov. The FDA published any and all notices, updates and recalls, and it has had more than one opportunity to get involved with the Ortho Evra birth control patch. Below is a brief look at the information on the FDA's Web site pertaining to this product:

November 10, 2005 - Press Release

On this date, the FDA disseminated a press release stating that it had approved an updated labeling system for this product to include a warning that this product contributes to higher levels of estrogen than most birth control pills. This exposure could potentially lead to a higher risk of blood clots, and blood clots could lead to such issues as heart attacks and strokes, among other serious problems.

September 20, 2006 - Update to Patient Information Sheet

The FDA updated a "Patient Information Sheet" that had originally been added to the Web site in 2002. This page covers relevant information to consider if you have used, are using or plan to use the Ortho Evra birth control patch. Specific information includes:
  • The use for the product
  • Those who should avoid the product
  • General precautions
  • What to tell your doctor
  • Potential side effects
Overall, if the FDA gets involved with a product, the Ortho Evra lawyers at Williams Kherkher are paying attention. If you have been injured as a result of using this patch, contact the firm immediately for a free initial consultation.
