Background on the Talcum Powder Cancer Lawsuits
Scientific and medical evidence has found that women are at a higher risk for developing ovarian cancer and mesothelioma from using J & J’s talc products.
With increasing evidence showing ovarian cancer risk and talcum powder use, victims have come forward to file lawsuits against J & J’s for their carcinogenic talc-based products, namely Johnson & Johnson’s Baby Powder and perineal talc powder.
J & J’s Attempts To Defend Itself
As more plaintiffs filed their talc lawsuits, Johnson and Johnson defended itself legally by claiming that its products were not cancer-causing.
This led the Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) to investigate the claims made by the plaintiffs and the company.
During the investigation, the FDA discovered old memos and documents revealing how Johnson and Johnson sourced its talc from the 1950s until the 1990s.
The documents were alarming.
They suggested that Johnson and Johnson had knowingly manufactured and distributed asbestos-contaminated talcum powder products.
This revelation put the company at risk of more talc powder lawsuits.
Recent Development and a Talcum Powder Lawsuit Update
By 2020, Johnson and Johnson faced increasing pressure to pay settlements as thousands of victims filed their baby powder lawsuits.
The company’s past actions had come to light, and talcum powder litigation had put it under fire.
On April 4, 2023, Johnson and Johnson offered to pay $8.9 billion in settlements to compensate the 40,000 women who filed talcum and baby powder lawsuits.
The settlement offer has not yet been accepted, and their is controversy surrounding the legal strategy J&J is attempting to use to shed its talc liabilities to a subsidiary company, which they have filed bankruptcy for.
Many lawyers are of the opinion that $8.9 billion does not suffice to compensate the almost 40,000 talc lawsuits fairly.
Others believe that J&J’s offer should be accepted and plaintiffs urgently need the financial compensation they’ve waited far too long to receive.
