Anthony Quackenbush is a Fort Lauderdale Talcum Powder Lawyer. Talcum Powder is a product that has been on the market for years. It is a product that has come to be used by women for cosmetic reasons. Nevertheless, women have been getting diagnosed with ovarian cancer as a result of their talcum powder usage. If you are one of these women, Mr. Quackenbush can help.
Talcum powder is frequently sold in the form of Johnson & Johnson’s Baby Powder Product. Johnson & Johnson baby powder contains talc, which is a mineral mined by a company called Imerys Talc America, Inc. After mining the talc, Imerys sells it to Johnson & Johnson, which uses the talc in its baby powder product. It is the baby powder product that women have been using vaginally/on their genitals for cosmetic reasons – and that has been causing ovarian cancers. In fact, it has been proven that talcum powder increases a woman’s risk of ovarian cancer by 30-60%.
The way that this works is that women dust their genitals with talcum powder/baby powder. After this initial use, talcum powder migrates up the vagina and eventually reaches the ovaries. There, it can cause an inflammatory response which can lead to ovarian cancer.
Talcum Powder can cause various types of cancer. These include:

Guidance in Time of Need Provided by this South Florida Talcum Powder AttorneyBecause talcum powder is a cosmetic product, it does not require approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). As such, Johnson & Johnson is not required to share safety information with the FDA. It is also not required to run tests to demonstrate safety, although it is required to make sure that its products (such as its baby powder/talcum powder products) are safe).
The above clearly wasn’t done, and you may be able to pursue a case as a result. Contact this South Florida Talcum Powder Attorney to see if you have a case.
The Food and Drug Administration does require that cosmetic products (such as Johnson & Johnson baby powder) contain warning statements to advise of potential health hazards. Despite the increased risk of ovarian cancer associated with its baby powder/talcum powder products, Johnson & Johnson does not include a warning on its baby powder products.
As a result, you may be able to pursue a “failure-to-warn” case. That is, manufacturers of products are required to warn consumers of potential risks of those products. If they don’t and a consumer is harmed as a result (e.g., by developing ovarian cancer, then the consumer can pursue a failure to warn case against the manufacturer of the product.
