Glyphosate is the active ingredient in Roundup. Glyphosate is a herbicide that is used to kill both broadleaf plants and grasses by being applied to the leaves of the plants. It is used to regulate plant growth and ripen certain crops. Glyphosate was first approved for use in the United States in 1974 and is now one of the most commonly used herbicides in the country. It is used in a variety of settings, including agriculture and forestry, on lawns and gardens, and to control weeds in industrial areas. Extensive exposure to Roundup can cause health problems like non hodgkin’s lymphoma and other cancers.

Does Roundup or Glyphosate Exposure Cause Cancer?

Glyphosate exposure has been linked to a number of serious health risks. According to the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), glyphosate is a “probable human carcinogen,” meaning that it is likely to cause cancer in humans. Multiple studies have linked glyphosate to developing Non Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. In addition to its potential cancer-causing effects, the herbicide glyphosate has also been linked to other health problems, such as birth defects, reproductive issues, and neurological problems. The potential risks of glyphosate exposure make it important for individuals to take precautions to avoid using Roundup Weed Killer.

Is There a Roundup Class Action Lawsuit?

There is not a class action lawsuit for Roundup. Rather, there is a Roundup Multidistrict Litigation (MDL). MDL is a legal procedure used to consolidate and streamline pretrial proceedings in multiple federal lawsuits that involve common questions of fact. In an MDL, a panel of judges oversees the cases and may coordinate discovery, motion practice, and other aspects of the litigation. The goal of MDL is to improve efficiency and avoid the duplication of effort. The difference between MDL and class action lawsuits is that in a class action one or more person sue on behalf of a larger group while in MDL multiple lawsuits with same facts or issues are consolidated but each case is considered and decided on its own merit.

What is the Roundup Lawsuit Statute of Limitations?
