North Carolina Attorneys Helping Those Suffering From Yaz Side Effects

The dangerous drug lawyers at Mike Lewis Attorneys are looking to hear from those suffering from adverse effects of Yaz, Yasmin or Ocella. These birth controls contain a hormone named drospirenone, which has recently been found to lead to various dangerous side effects.   Yaz, a leading oral birth control pill, has been linked to various dangerous side effects including blood clots and deep vein thrombosis.  If you or a loved one has suffered from blood clots or any unexpected side effect of these popular birth controls, you may be able to seek compensation for physical damages and medical bills.  To find out if you are eligible for compensation or if you would like to receive legal information, visit http://www.mikelewisattorneys.com/yaz-and-yasmin-lawyers.html.  The Yaz injury lawyers at Mike Lewis attorneys are now offering a free and confidential case evaluation for anyone suffering from Yaz side effects.  

Recently, a study in Denmark was conducted in order to determine the side effects of birth control that contain drospirenone versus traditional oral contraceptive methods.  The results of the study showed that women who used birth control pills with DRSP were more likely to suffer life-threatening blood clots.  A secondary study was then conducted in Israel with 330,000 women.  The results of the study showed that women using oral contraceptives containing DRSP were 43 percent to 65 percent more likely to develop fatal venous thromboembolism.  Furthermore, the FDA recently released a study announcing that Yaz and Yasmin can raise a user’s risk of blood clots by almost 74 percent.

Once considered the miracle birth control pill because of its positive side effects (such as lessening PMS symptoms and clearing up skin), the FDA has issued a warning to users of Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella about the dangerous side effects of these birth control pills.  After extensive study, it has been determined that Yaz has been linked to an increased chance of blood clots.  The most common of these Yaz blood clots are thromboembolisms or deep vein thrombosis. Deep vein thrombosis is characterized as a formation of a blood clot that breaks loose in the extremities and travels in the blood stream.  These clots can block blood traveling through the veins, leading to heart attacks, strokes, and difficulty breathing.

The Yaz injury attorneys at Mike Lewis Attorneys believe that when a pharmaceutical company fails to adequately warn consumers of risks associated with their products, they should be held responsible.  If you believe that you or a loved one has suffered due to side effects of Yaz, visit MikeLewisAttorneys.com for a free case evaluation.  The Yaz blood clot lawyers at Mike Lewis Attorneys have the experience and resource necessary to pursue compensation and justice on your behalf.
