Talcum Powder Lawsuit Filings Include Nine More In Six States

September 30, 2016 – – TheProductLawyers.com reports on a recent article by HarrisMartin Publishing indicating that nine more talcum powder lawsuits have been filed.

According to the article, nine new talcum powder lawsuits have been filed in federal courts in several states. Plaintiffs in the cases are claiming that they developed ovarian cancer as a result of using Baby Powder and Shower-to-Shower. The complaints were filed between Aug. 1 and Aug. 5 in courts in Mississippi, Louisiana, Georgia, Kansas, Alabama, and Kentucky.

Although many studies state that the link between ovarian cancer and talcum powder is not clear, over the last 45 years, several other studies have found that women who use baby powder as a feminine hygiene product are more likely to develop this debilitating disease.

Thousands of 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 and that the company should be held responsible for fraud and misrepresentation. Johnson & Johnson has denied claims that their products cause cancer and has stated that no causal link exists.
