Talcum Powder Lawsuit
Thousands of lawsuits allege that talc-based powders were contaminated with asbestos and caused cancer, and that the maker knew of the risk for decades.
Overview
Talcum powder lawsuits allege that talc-based products caused ovarian cancer and mesothelioma, and that manufacturers failed to warn consumers. The litigation has produced large verdicts and multibillion-dollar settlement efforts.
The injuries
Two injury patterns dominate the claims: ovarian cancer, typically after long-term use of talc powder for feminine hygiene, and mesothelioma, tied to asbestos contamination in talc.
Who may qualify
People diagnosed with ovarian cancer or mesothelioma after regular, long-term use of talc-based powder may be eligible to pursue a claim.
