Side effects of Yaz birth control could increase the risk of life-threatening injuries. Yaz lawsuits are being reviewed nationwide.
Yaz, which is nearly identical to Yasmin birth control, is a newer type of oral contraceptive sold by Bayer. It has been aggressively marketed without adequate warnings about potentially life-threatening side effects.
This site provides Yasmin lawsuit information and the latest news regarding Yasmin side effects and problems. This relatively new birth control has been marketed heavily to women in the United States and is one of the first contraceptives considered a “fourth generation” birth control pill.
It is manufactured by Bayer which also markets Yaz birth control. Generic Yasmin is marketed as “Ocella” and is manufactured by Teva. Yasmin is a combination hormonal contraceptive. It contains the hormones ethinyl estradiol (estrogen) and drospirenone which is a synthetic form of progestin.
Recently, Yasmin problems have been increasingly reported. Serious side effects of Yasmin including blood clots, gallbladder disease, stroke, and heart attack have been associated with women using the birth control.
Yaz Yasmin DVT and Pulmonary Embolism
Ocella side effects include deep vein thrombosis (DVT). This serious side effect is a condition in which a blood clot (thrombus) forms in one or more of the deep veins in your body, usually in your legs. Clots can form in superficial veins and in deep veins.
Women who have used Generic Yaz birth control (Ocella) have been diagnosed with DVT and in some cases with pulmonary embolism (PE). Clots in deep veins can break loose and travel to your lungs.
This is called a pulmonary (lung) embolism. In severe cases, a pulmonary embolism can cause life-threatening complications and death.
Pulmonary embolism is a serious Yasmin side effect reported by women using this fourth-generation contraceptive. Venous thrombosis events have been linked to this contraceptive. Pulmonary embolism (PE), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and ischemic strokes are some of the problems being associated with Yaz birth control.
Yaz side effects include:
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
• Pulmonary embolism (PE)
• Stroke
• Heart attack
• Gallbladder problems
If you or a loved one has suffered from any of the harmful side effects of Yaz such as blood clots, stroke or heart attack you may be entitled to file a Yasmin lawsuit against the manufacturer.
