Finch McCranie, LLP is now investigating Ortho Evra Patch cases. This is a contraceptive skin patch marketed by Ortho McNeil Pharmaceuticals, a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson. This skin patch is used by women as a contraceptive to prevent pregnancy but recent studies have indicated that the use of this product can result in the formation of blood clots in the legs and the lungs. The product dramatically increases estrogen levels in women who may use it and may also lead to heart attacks and strokes which may be caused by blood clots. Reports have indicated that those who use the Ortho Evra Patch not only suffer from blood clots but they also die at a rate 3 times as high as those women who use traditional birth control pills. The majority of women who have died while using this patch were in their late teens or early twenties.
If you or a loved one have used these Ortho Evra Patch and have experienced problems with blood clots, strokes or heart attacks, please call the firm’s toll free number 1.866.443.4624 or click here for a FREE consultation.
