Defective Drug: Yaz Birth Control

Pennsylvania Defective Drug Attorneys

Were You Harmed by Yaz Birth Control Pills?

Contraceptives are some of the most commonly prescribed drugs for adult women. While they often are safe and effective forms of birth control, some may cause serious and life-threatening side effects.

Yaz, distributed by the Bayer pharmaceutical company, is one such contraceptive. This birth control pill was heavily marketed as a safe and effective drug that not only prevented pregnancy, but also treated acne and helped prevent premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). However, the early advertisements failed to mention the serious side effects, such as blood clots in the legs and lungs, strokes, heart attacks and gall bladder disease. Many women suffered these symptoms without any warning that they could occur.

If you or someone you know suffered serious side effects after taking Yaz, contact a Pennsylvania toxic tort attorney at Silvers, Langsam & Weitzman, P.C., home of MyPhillyLawyer, today. We can help determine if you have a valid claim, and if so, assist you in filing a lawsuit.

Experienced Personal Injury Lawyers

At MyPhillyLawyer, we handle Yaz cases for victims throughout Pennsylvania and in South New Jersey. In addition to using our own skills and knowledge in this area, we work with leading attorneys in toxic tort claims to make certain that our cases are on track to receive the best possible outcome.

Our firm can effectively handle single plaintiff cases, but we also will represent clients as part of a class action. This is common in product liability claims because victims can put up a united front against the pharmaceutical company. Either way, you will be represented by skilled and experienced attorneys who are committed to protecting your rights and recovering the compensation you deserve.

We Will Stand Up to Pharmaceutical Companies

To schedule a free initial consultation regarding your suffering from Yaz birth control serious side effects, contact the personal injury attorneys of MyPhillyLawyer today. Find out how we can help seek compensation for the harm done to you by negligent and deceptive drug companies.
