Talcum Powder Lawsuit Filed By Six New Plaintiffs In Different States

September 30, 2016 – – TheProductLawyers.com reports on a recent article by HarrisMartin Publishing indicating that six new lawsuits have been filed in various states against Johnson & Johnson.

The source said that lawsuits have been filed in Illinois, Georgia, Ohio, Texas, and Florida. The sixth complaint, according to the article, was removed to a Florida federal court, after it was originally filed in a state court in April.

The product was widely popularized as a feminine hygiene product that women would often use to sprinkle the lining of their underwear. Over the last 45 years numerous studies have found that women who use baby powder as a feminine hygiene product are more likely to develop this debilitating disease. Other studies, however, have not found a definitive link between the two.

Many women in the U.S. have made claims alleging that Johnson & Johnson hid valuable medical information that prevented consumers from knowing the dangers of using the powders. Those plaintiffs further claim that the use of Johnson & Johnson’s powders as a feminine hygiene product are directly linked to ovarian cancer. Johnson & Johnson has denied claims that their products cause cancer and has stated that no causal link exists.
