JOHNSON & JOHNSON LOSE ANOTHER TALCUM POWDER CANCER LAWSUIT Have you heard the latest news? You will be happy to hear that Johnson & Johnson has suffered its second costly court defeat in less than three months over claims its talcum powder caused cancer. And many other cases are coming. This is really great – a jury in St. Louis awarded $55 million in damages to Gloria Ristesund, who used Johnson & Johnson’s talcum powder for more than 35 years before being diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2011. The lawyers said that Johnson & Johnson knew of possible health risks associated with talc, but failed to warn consumers. They said that the internal documents from Johnson& Johnson show it knew of studies connecting talc use and ovarian cancer but, to this day, it continues to market it as safe — neglecting any warning. Gloria Ristesund was represented by the Onder Law Firm. But, the Johnson & Johnson spokesman said that the company plans to appeal the verdict. Carol Goodrich, a spokesman for Johnson & Johnson said that multiple scientific and regulatory reviews have determined that talc is safe for use in cosmetic products and the labeling on Johnson’s Baby Powder is appropriate. You’ve probably heard that in February, a jury ordered Johnson & Johnson to pay $72 million to the family of Jackie Fox. Fox died of ovarian cancer in 2015. You should know that the trials are part of a legal action that includes nearly 50 plaintiffs, suggesting Johnson & Johnson could face additional penalties. Do you know what’s talc? Well, talc is a naturally occurring mineral composed of magnesium, silicon, oxygen and hydrogen. It’s used to absorb moisture in many kinds of cosmetic products, from baby powder to make up. ACS (American Cancer Society) says it is not clear if products containing talcum powder increase cancer risk. The International Agency for Research on Cancer, which is part of the World Health Organization, classifies talc as possibly carcinogenic to humans. Many different products, which contain talcum powder are classified as cosmetics, and they do not have to undergo review by the Food and Drug Administration. But, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) states that these products must be properly labeled and “they must be safe for use by consumers under labeled or customary conditions of use,”. We really hope you find this article helpful and don’t forget to share it with your friends and family. Thank You.

Nakon što je Jackie Fox iz Alabame dijagnosticiran rak jajnika, pridružila se brojim ženama koje su tužile farmaceutsku tvrtku jer tvrtka nije izvijestila potrošače o opasnostima talka po zdravlje žena. Farmaceutski div Johnson & Johnson po sudskoj odluci mora isplatiti 72 milijuna dolara odštete obitelji Jackie Fox koja je umrla od raka jajnika, a zaključeno je da se razvio kao posljedica korištenja dječjeg pudera te tvrtke. Nakon što je Jackie Fox iz Alabame dijagnosticiran rak jajnika, pridružila se brojim ženama koje su tužile farmaceutsku tvrtku jer tvrtka nije izvijestila potrošače o opasnostima talka po zdravlje žena. Riječ je o prvom slučaju ove vrste u kojemu bi tužitelj trebao dobiti novčanu odštetu. Očekuje se da Johnson & Johnson uloži žalbu na presudu. Profesorica sa Stanforda, Nora Freeman Engstrom tvrdi da sudska presuda “ne sluti na dobro” kada je tvrtka u pitanju, jer ju je iz istog razloga tužilo još 1200 osoba. Tijekom suđenja odvjetnici Jackie Fox kazali su da je tvrtka znala koje su potencijalne opasnosti korištenja dječjeg pudera u ženskoj intimnoj njezi. Već godinama se korištenje dječjeg pudera u ženskoj intimnoj njezi povezuje s rakom jajnika. Navodno čestice pudera ulaskom u organizam mogu izazvati razne upale koje pak omogućuju razvoj kancerogenih stanica. No dokazi nisu sasvim uvjerljivi. Međunarodna agencija za istraživanje karcinoma dječji puder koji se koristi u intimnoj njezi žena svrstava među “potencijalno kancerogene” agense. Naime, talk je mineral ili prirodni kamen koji sadrži magnezij silikat, ali i azbest, koji uzrokuje rak. No dječji puder i ostali slični kozmetički proizvodi koji sadrže azbest iz prodaje su povučeni još sedamdesetih godina prošlog stoljeća. I udruga Ovacome tvrdi da nema pouzdanog dokaza da je korištenje pudera i bolesti povezano. “Blag rizik postoji, no vrlo je malen broj žena kod kojih će se zbog povremene upotrebe talka razviti ova vrsta karcinoma”, stoji u objavi udruge. “Najčešće se radi o genetskoj predispoziciji ili o drugim rizičnim faktorima, poput hormonske nadomjesne terapije”. Sličan stav ima i britanska udruga Cancer Research
