Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella are oral contraceptives that contain the hormone drospirenone. A study by the British Medical Journal found that Yaz birth control pills have a greater risk of causing blood clots than other birth control pills. Researchers believe that drospirenone increases the risk of blood clots. This same study also said that Yaz users are at increased risk for venous thrombosis, a dangerous blood clot that forms in the vein. Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a side effect of Yaz, is when a blood clot forms in a deep vein, such as the legs. Many Yaz users have suffered from pulmonary embolisms, a complication of deep vein thrombosis, which is a blood clot that travels to the lungs. Pulmonary embolisms can be life-threatening.

Thousands of women are claiming that they have sustained a Yaz blood clot. As a result, they are suing Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals, the producer of Yaz and Yasmin. If you believe that you have Yaz injury claim, it is important to speak to an attorney as soon as possible. There may be a statue of limitations for filing a Yaz lawsuit, preventing you from money damages after a certain period of time.  Greg Coleman Law has the experience and resources to handle dangerous drug litigation.
