Talcum Powder Lawsuits

Talcum powder cases allege that baby powder producer were aware that their talc was contaminated with asbestos and might lead to mesothelioma and ovarian cancer, but did nothing to warn consumers. Individual lawsuits represent the majority of the cases, however, at least four class-action lawsuits have been filed. Plaintiffs have recently been awarded billions of dollars in jury decisions.

Women must have used talc-containing goods around the vaginal area daily or practically daily before getting ovarian cancer in ovarian cancer litigation. It’s worth noting that women who used cornstarch-based baby powders aren’t covered by these lawsuits because cornstarch-based powders don’t contain talc.

People who developed ovarian cancer or mesothelioma after using a cosmetic or commercial talcum powder product may be qualified to launch a talcum powder case.
