Yasmin DVT Side Effects Can Lead to Amputation

A woman is claiming that Yasmin deep vein thrombosis side effects in one arm led to an emergency procedure to amputate the limb. Doctors could not find a way to limit the risk for stroke or pulmonary embolism any other way. Since the condition is difficult to be found by women unless it is near the skin, DVT can also lead to infections like gangrene that necessitate an amputation. The effects on quality of life are stark.

It is not like the other Beyaz side effects are any less devastating. A stroke can affect one’s ability to walk and move, as well as create cognitive problems in people that may have otherwise stayed healthy for decades. While many Yaz lawsuit attorneys note that the dual-hormone birth control pills were often very effective in limiting the likelihood of pregnancy, they argue that their clients likely would not have taken the drugs had they known the risk.

They still remain on the market and in fact are now generic, making them more affordable to women throughout the country. Many gynecologists still prescribe them in spite of these risks, and in spite of efforts in other Western countries to limit their usage. Perhaps the one piece of good news is that the drug maker Bayer Pharmaceutical has decided to settle with many of the more than 10,000 plaintiffs who have faced Yasmin deep vein thrombosis conditions, whether it required amputation to fix the problem or not.

In addition, the company has already set aside hundreds of millions of dollars to help pay for the costs of these Yasmin and Yaz settlements, which currently average more than $200,000. Women should note that while blood clotting problems can result in settlements, gallbladder issues may still result in the need for a jury trial against Bayer Pharmaceutical.

Regardless of which conditions you or someone you know have suffered, getting a free consultation with a Yaz lawsuit attorney should be considered. A free consultation is available with one at the Yaz/Yasmin, Beyaz & Ocella Birth Control Pill Class Action Lawsuit Settlement & Investigation.
