Yasmin oral contraceptive, most popularly called Yaz, is also referred toYasmine, Yas or it’s generic name Ocella. Yasmin is the best selling oral contraceptive in the United States. It has since been determined that the popular contraceptive pill can cause serious health issues. Yaz side effects are liable for inducing heart attacks, strokes, other forms of blood cots, even pulmonary embolism. With unclear claims in their advertizing, Yaz was commercialized towards young women who had no idea just what kind of chances they were taking with their lives. This is why Yaz has now been sanctioned by the Food and Drug Administration and have been asked to make necessary campaign changes.
Although Yasmin went through clinical trials and obtained Food and Drug Administration approval in the United States, the competitive marketing of the birth control pill for its effect of cutting back the incidence of PMDD and acne led to its popularity and exposure. This exposure was to a much larger array of adult females than were initially involved in the clinical trials and subsequently, far more sufferers of the Yaz side effects were discovered. The more extreme side effects include deep vein thrombosis, myocardial infarction, and gall bladder disease. Among the minor and far more common side effects are headaches, increased appetite, and reduced sex drive.
There is at least one highly heralded class action lawsuit against the maker of Yasmin, Bayer Pharmaceuticals. If the effects of Yaz are small, then you may want to think about becoming a part of that class action suit. If your Yaz side effects are of a more crucial nature, then you may want to think about searching for an attorney who is knowledgeable with this type of case and initiate your own lawsuit against the pharmaceutical business. There may also be a malpractice lawsuit depending on when the doctor prescribed the birth control pill and your medical history at the time of the prescription.
