A NuvaRing® lawyer is the professional to turn to if you or your family member suffered an injury or illness due to the use of the NuvaRing. Although the NuvaRing® birth control method is a highly effective contraceptive, when used correctly, it has a number of potential side effects that are very serious — even deadly. These include:

• NuvaRing® deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
• NuvaRing® stroke (cerebrovascular accident)
• NuvaRing® pulmonary embolism
• NuvaRing® heart attack
• NuvaRing® blood clot
• gallbladder disease
• worsening of conditions such as heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes

A NuvaRing® injury lawyer represents individuals and families who have been harmed by this third-generation contraceptive. The NuvaRing® works by providing low doses of two hormones (an estrogen and a progestin) that prevent pregnancy by keeping the user's ovaries from producing mature eggs. Although the NuvaRing® birth control method is a relatively simple and effective contraceptive, it has been associated with serious injuries including:

• stroke
• heart attack, other heart problems
• liver tumors
• heart attack
• blood clots in lung or leg (deep vein thrombosis/DVT)
• severe depression
• gallbladder or liver problems
• sudden partial or complete loss of vision

What a NuvaRing® Lawyer Can Do

Many women who were using a NuvaRing® to prevent pregnancy have been injured or made ill. A NuvaRing® lawyer can help any woman (or her surviving family members) start a legal claim to recover damages for NuvaRing® injuries, illness, or death, such as:

• medical bills
• disability
• loss of income and ability to work
• rehabilitation
• out-of-pocket expenses
• emotional suffering
• loss of a loved one's companionship and support

NuvaRing® Defendants

The NuvaRing® was originally made by a company based in The Netherlands called Organon, and marketed by Organon USA. The company was later bought by Schering-Plough Corp. Thus, the following entities have all been named as defendants in actions by NuvaRing® lawyers on behalf of the injured:

• Organon USA Inc.
• Organon Biosciences, NV
• Organon International, Inc.
• Organon Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc.
• Akzo Nobel NV (Organon was their subsidiary)
• Schering-Plough Corp.

Inadequate Warning, Concealed Information?

NuvaRing® plaintiffs' lawyers have contended that these defendants are responsible for injuries and illnesses that were not adequately described to NuvaRing® users. The defendants may also have concealed information about NuvaRing's risks.

How can a NuvaRing® Injury Lawyer Help You

A NuvaRing® injury lawyer represents people who believe they have been injured by the NuvaRing. Millions of people are hurt or killed every year in the U.S. because of unsafe products, and it takes an experienced, knowledgeable attorney to obtain sufficient, fair compensation for the losses incurred by victims of unsafe products.

Although the NuvaRing® was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use as a contraceptive in 2001, there have been many reports of NuvaRing® injuries since its introduction. In just seven years, the NuvaRing® has racked up an alarming number of injury reports, even fatalities that are apparently due to the use of this third-generation contraceptive.

Damages from NuvaRing®

The NuvaRing® birth control method, like other contraceptives, is used simply to prevent pregnancy. However, when a woman suffers a stroke, heart attack, or other NuvaRing-related injury, she may well have to contend with damages such as:

• medical bills — hospitalization, surgery, anesthesia, medications
• rehabilitation, long-term care
• disability
• income interruption or cessation
• loss of ability to work
• loss of a loved one's companionship
