Two New Talcum Powder Lawsuit Filings Brought To Pennsylvania Court

October 31, 2016 – – TheProductLawyers.com reports on two new cases that have been filed in Pennsylvania court relating to talcum powder and its alleged link to ovarian cancer.

According to the news source, the cases were filed in the Pennsylvania Court of Common Pleas on Aug. 31. Both plaintiffs claim that the use of talcum powder products are directly linked to the development of their ovarian cancer. Additionally, they claim that Johnson & Johnson, the defendant in the case, concealed important information about the dangers of their products.

These cases are a few of many that have recently been filed against companies such as Johnson & Johnson claiming that their talcum powder products are directly linked to ovarian cancer. These cases follow numerous studies done over the last 45 years that have found that women who use baby powder as a feminine hygiene product are more likely to develop ovarian cancer. Johnson & Johnson has maintained denial in these claims and has previously stated that there is no link between talcum powder and ovarian cancer. The company has never released a warning about the potential risks of its Johnson’s Baby Powder and Shower To Shower products.

Three state court juries have decided that Johnson & Johnson should be held accountable for hiding decades of medical evidence from the public. Several plaintiffs have already been awarded millions of dollars in compensation and lawsuit numbers are continuing to grow. Most of the filed cases are pending in a Missouri federal court, while others have been filed in New Jersey, where Johnson & Johnson is headquartered.
