Ovarian Cancer Claims Against Talcum Powder

The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) is part of the World Health Organization (WHO) and classifies talc that contains asbestos as “carcinogenic to humans”. Based on numerous additional studies involving thousands of individuals, women who used talcum products are 30% more likely to develop ovarian cancer. This means that women who regularly use talcum-based powder as a part of their feminine hygiene routine have a significantly higher chance of developing ovarian cancer.

Talcum powder is the focus of cancer lawsuits because of its brand recognition, long use, and marketing specifically for “feminine hygiene” uses. The Shower-to-ShowerÂŪ Body Powder by Johnson & JohnsonÂŪ is another product developed about 50 years ago. The company continued marketing Shower-to-ShowerÂŪ products despite knowing about the research on a possible connection between talcum powder and cancer. Their most popular slogan remained “a sprinkle a day keeps odor away” even when they had the research.

Other companies have also been at fault in some lawsuits, including Whittaker, Clark & DanielsÂŪ and Cashmere Boutique by Colgate-PalmoliveÂŪ. However, Johnson & Johnson’sÂŪ products are more popular and have many more lawsuits filed against them.

J&JÂŪ Loses Their Bid To Have A $4.7 Billion Talcum Powder Verdict Set Aside

On December 19, 2018, Johnson & JohnsonÂŪ lost their bid at having a $4.9B verdict set aside. The company failed to persuade a Missouri trial judge to set aside their verdict from July that awarded a record $4.69 billion to 22 women. Those 22 women blamed their ovarian cancer on the company’s Baby Powder and other talc products.

On July 13, 2018, the St. Louis jury awarded $550 million in compensatory damages and $4.14 billion in punitive damages.

J&JÂŪ Fails To Overturn $2.12 Billion Baby Powder Verdict, Plans Supreme Court Appeal

On November 3, 2020, Johnson & JohnsonÂŪ failed to overturn a $2.12 billion baby powder verdict. Reuters reports, that the Missouri Supreme Court upheld a June 23 decision by a state appeals court, which upheld a jury’s July 2018 finding of liability but reduced J&J’sÂŪ payout from $4.69 billion after dismissing claims by some of the 22 plaintiffs. Johnson & JohnsonÂŪ said it plans to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.
