If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with meningioma after using Depo-Provera, you may be entitled to pursue legal action. Anapol Weiss, a nationally recognized personal injury law firm, has long been a leader in mass tort claims against some of the largest pharmaceutical companies, including Johnson & Johnson and Pfizer. In October, Anapol Weiss filed one of the first complaints specifically alleging that Depo-Provera, manufactured by Pfizer, caused the development of meningiomas. The firm is actively preparing additional lawsuits to hold Pfizer accountable for its negligence.
These cases are being handled by the Anapol Weiss Women’s Health Litigation Team, a group of dedicated female attorneys committed to representing women who have been injured by defective drugs and medical products. This specialized team provides compassionate legal support while fighting for justice on behalf of their clients.
What Is the Depo-Provera Meningioma Lawsuit About?
Depo-Provera is a widely used contraceptive injection containing medroxyprogesterone acetate, a synthetic hormone. Recent evidence has linked prolonged use of Depo-Provera to an increased risk of developing meningiomas—tumors that form in the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord.
The lawsuits allege that Pfizer failed to adequately warn patients and healthcare providers about this significant risk. Anapol Weiss’s complaint filed in October is one of the first legal actions to directly hold Pfizer accountable for the harm caused by Depo-Provera-related tumors.
