Pharmaceutical giant Bayer has already paid $1.74 billion to settle cases brought by more than 8,560 plaintiffs for injuries caused by the popular birth control pills Yaz and Yasmin. With thousands of cases still pending, one law firm urges women who have suffered serious side effects, such as pulmonary embolism or deep vein thrombosis, to seek justice.
PRLog - June 17, 2015 - PHOENIX -- The Arentz Law Group is offering free legal consultations to women who took Yaz, Yasmin or their generic counterparts, Ocella or Gianvi, and experienced negative health effects due to a blood clot. Women seeking free consultations can call 1-800-305-6000 or visit the Arentz Law Group Yaz information page.
“Bayer downplayed the potentially life threatening side effects [of Yaz] while aggressively, and even deceptively, advertising potential benefits to young women,” says Attorney, Robert Arentz. "It's important that women who have been injured come forward, not only because they deserve to be compensated, but also to send a message to Bayer; women deserve to be fully informed of the risks when it comes to birth control."
As part of their Yaz Awareness Campaign, the Arentz Law Group has created the Yaz Survivors Settlement Network, a Facebook-based group dedicated to spreading the word about Yaz blood clot injuries. The Yaz Survivors Settlement Network provides news and legal updates, as well as a place for women affected by Yaz to ask questions and share their own stories.
The Arentz Law Group is a premier national law firm specializing in defective pharmaceutical and medical device claims. If you or a loved one has been harmed by a pharmaceutical drug or defective medical device and would like the Arentz Law Group to help you, call 1-800-305-6000 or visit arentzlaw.com.
