FDA Orders Warning of Increased Blood Clot Risk from Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella

DeCarli Law — Thu, 26 Apr 2012 21:46:00 GMT

On April 10, 2012, the FDA ordered the manufacturers of Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella to include a warning that these oral contraceptives cause up to a three-fold increase in the risk of blood clots. The new warning label applies to all forms of birth control that contain drospirenone. Previously, there was no warning that drospirenone-containing birth control pills could cause a greater risk of blood clots compared to older birth control pills.

All forms of oral contraceptives increase the risk of blood clots, or venous thrombobotic events (VTE). However, some studies have shown that the risk is three times as great for birth control pills containing drospirenone, such as Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella. After reviewing these studies, the FDA announced that it "believes that drospirenone-containing products may be associated with a higher risk of blood clots and is adding information about these observational studies to the drug labels for drospirenone-containing products."

VTEs include deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). A DVT is a blood clot that forms inside a vein. These blood clots usually form in the lower leg or thigh, but can break loose and travel to other areas of the body such as the lungs. If the clot travels to the lung, and an artery in the lung is blocked, it is called a pulmonary embolism (PE), which is potentially fatal.

If a woman developed a DVT or PE while using Yaz, Yasmin or Ocella, they likely have a claim for their injury. In fact, some injured woman have already reached settlements with Bayer, the manufacturer of Yaz and Yasmin. Women may contact the attorneys at DeCarli Law for a free, no-obligation consultation to learn whether they may participate in ongoing settlement talks.
