Nuvaring Side Effects News | Attorney Lawyer

by Steve Fields on October 10th, 2009

Women throughout the United States have reported developing dangerous NuvaRing side effects after using this relatively new birth control. Nuvaring contains two types of hormones, estrogen and progestin which are delivered in a low steady release. This along with the convenience convinced many women to switch to this type of contraception. However, Nuvaring problems including: blood clot, pulmonary embolism and stroke have affected women who had no other risk factors for developing blood clots.

There is a limited time to file a Nuvaring lawsuit. If you or a loved one has suffered from serious side effects please contact us and we can help go over how to participate in making a claim.

It is argued that the manufacturer knew about the increased risk of developing Nuva ring blood clots and through their marketing instead focused heavily on the benefits of NuvaRing while minimizing the serious Nuvaring side effects such as blood clots, stroke and pulmonary embolism.

NuvaRing was originally made by Organon USA. Organon BioSciences is a pharmaceutical company that is now part of the Schering-Plough Corporation. NuvaRing was first approved in the Netherlands in February 2001. On October 3, 2001, NuvaRing was approved in the United States by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Nuvaring birth control is a combination hormone contraceptive which uses the hormones estrogen and etonogestrel which is a form of the progestin desogestrel. The hormones in Nuvaring may cause changes in the way your blood clotting system functions allowing blood clots to more easily form. If blood clots form in your legs, they can later travel to the lungs and cause a sudden blockage of a vessel carrying blood to the lungs. The risk of developing a pulmonary embolism increases.
