Yaz Attorneys
Women are coming forward to report the injuries they suffered while taking Yaz. A study published recently by the British Medical Journal found that women who take Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella have a 200% higher risk of suffering serious side effects and injury than women who take other brands of birth control pills.
Yaz Side Effects
There are indications that Bayer, its parent company, has been secretive about the drug’s dangerous side effects and the possibly serious health consequences that result from taking Yaz. This is even more alarming when you consider that this medication has also been prescribed for girls as young as 14 in treating acne.
Gallbladder Removal
Links between Yaz and the development of gallbladder disease have been strong enough that the side-effect has sometimes been colloquially referred to as Yaz gallbladder disease. Women, who obviously are the users of birth control pills, are already two times more likely to develop gallstones than men. It has been suggested that the use of Yaz can increase this danger even more by increasing the amount of cholesterol found in bile and by slowing down movement in the gallbladder.
