Erin Brockovich Warns About Yaz Side Effects

Erin Brockovich warns women that Yaz side effects may include stroke, gallbladder complications, blood clots

Erin Brockovich has spoken to many women who took Yaz, Yasmin or Ocella birth control pills, only to suffer serious side effects such as gallbladder complications that resulted in surgery, strokes and blood clots.

In recent news, a woman from Iowa filed a lawsuit against Yaz manufacturer Bayer, alleging that she developed serious side effects from her use of birth control Ocella, a generic version of Yaz.

The woman claims that she used the product for several months last year, and suffered a stroke and other life-threatening side effects.

The lawsuit contends that the woman is now at greater risk for developing blood clots in deep veins and her lungs, due to the progestin contained in Ocella.

Yaz side effects
Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella are oral contraceptives that contain ethinyl estradiol and the new fourth generation progestin drospirenone (DRSP), which have been linked to the following side effects:

  • deep vein thrombosis (DVT),
  • pulmonary embolism (PE),
  • gallbladder complications and gallbladder disease,
  • stroke and
  • heart attack.
