Personal Injury Press Article

July 24, 2005

The New York Post, “Patch Gals Suing; Birth-Control Danger”

Ten women are uniting to sue the maker of a popular birth-control patch, saying the device caused them to suffer strokes and blood clots, The Post has learned.
The suit, expected to be filed tomorrow in Superior Court in Hudson County, N.J., charges that the Ortho-Evra contraceptive patch - worn by millions in the U.S. - was "defectively designed" and is "unreasonably dangerous." It seeks punitive damages against New Jersey-based Johnson & Johnson, whose subsidiary Ortho-McNeil Pharmaceutical makes the patch and markets it with sexy ads, supermodels and Olympic athletes.
