If you have suffered a heart attack, stroke or blood clot while using the Ortho Evra birth control patch, you may need to contact an attorney or law firm familiar with Ortho Evra birth control patch litigation.

In November 2005, Ortho McNeil, a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson, issued an Ortho Evra birth control patch warning to millions of women revealing that the patch exposes them to significant amounts of the hormone estrogen (about 60 percent more than regular birth control pills) and may put them at greater risk of developing blood clots. According to Ortho Evra attorneys involved in lawsuits filed against the patch’s maker, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has received over 20 reports of blood clots and other adverse events associated with the use of the Ortho Evra birth control patch.

See your doctor if you have concerns about the safety of the Ortho Evra birth control patch or if you have experienced serious side effects associated with the patch. In addition, it may be important to contact an Ortho Evra attorney who can help you protect your legal rights. Please keep in mind that there may be time limits within which your Ortho Evra attorney must commence suit.
