Talcum Powder Compensation

Johnson & Johnson Lawsuit

Diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer ?

Johnson & Johnson products containing talcum powder, such as baby powder and Shower to Shower, have been household staples for decades and millions of women have used them for female hygiene purposes on a regular basis. However it has recently been revealed that there is a significant correlation between the perennial use of talcum products and ovarian cancer.

And according to news reports, Johnson & Johnson knew for the past decade that the continued use of talc baby powder significantly increases the risk of ovarian cancer but did not warn consumers.

In a 2018 landmark case, a jury awarded $4.7 billion to 22 women and their families who stated that the asbestos found in Johnson & Johnson’s talcum powder contributed to their diagnosis of ovarian cancer. Recently, a woman in California who claimed Johnson & Johnson’s baby powder lead to her developing mesothelioma was awarded $29 million.

If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with ovarian cancer and were a consistent user of products containing talcum powder, call Mooney Law right away to see if you have a case. You didn’t deserve ovarian cancer. But you may deserve compensation for the harm it caused.

What Products are involved ?

Johnson’s Baby Powder and Shower to Shower

What is Shower to Shower ?

Shower to Shower is a deodorizing product containing talcum powder that is intended to be used all over the body to combat moisture and maintain smooth skin. For decades, it has been sold and marketed as a safe and effective product.

What is Talc ?

Talc is a naturally-occurring mineral made up of a variety of elements including magnesium, silicon, and oxygen. Talc in powder form has been used to help combat moisture, avoid friction, and prevent rashes. It is widely used in cosmetic products including baby powder, and adult body and facial powders.

Who Might have been affected ?

Any female who used products containing talcum powder for female hygiene purposes or in their genital area and have subsequently developed and been diagnosed with ovarian cancer.

Link to Ovarian Cancer

Talc, in its natural form, contains asbestos which is a well known and documented carcinogen. Therefore, talc products regularly used in the genital area could increase the risk of ovarian cancer if the powder were to travel through the vagina, uterus and Fallopian tubes to the ovaries.
