Knowing The Difference: A Look At How Ovarian Cancer Symptoms Mimic Other Conditions As Talcum Powder Lawsuit Filings Mount

November 18, 2016 – – TheProductLawyers.com reports on a recent article by WBALL TV that discusses the ways in which early ovarian cancer symptoms can sometimes mimic many other disorders.

The article discusses the frequency with which many women mistake early signs of ovarian cancer with something as common as menstruation. WBALL TV interviewed Dr. Teresa Diaz-Montes at Mercy Medical Center, who said that often times women think that what is happening to them is normal. This is mostly due to the fact that early symptoms include bloating, infrequent urination and changes in bowel movements. She stated in the article that it is a good idea to check with your doctor if those symptoms don’t go away.

It is especially important now for women to become aware of these symptoms as more and more people are coming forward to file lawsuits involving ovarian cancer that allegedly developed as a result of using talcum powder. The lawsuits, which now reach over 2,000 in number suggest that plaintiffs have used their powders and subsequently developed the deadly disease. Plaintiffs argue that the company should be held responsible for charges including fraud and negligence for failing to warn consumers about these alleged risks.

Johnson & Johnson has denied such claims, stating that their products were developed by “following the science” and that no such link exists. Juries, however, have found that the pharmaceutical giant should be held responsible and the company has been made to pay millions in the three trials that have since concluded. Johnson & Johnson is looking to appeal those decisions.

As these lawsuits are expected to grow in numbers, Banville Law is seeking to help those currently suffering. The firm has many years of experience fighting large pharmaceutical companies who have put dangerous drugs and devices onto the market, foregoing public safety for corporate greed. Attorneys at Banville Law want to assist those who believe they have been directly affected by the use of Johnson’s talcum powder. Affected individuals may be entitled to financial compensation and legal action. Banville Law is currently offering free consultations to individuals who qualify.
