Canadian women in search of meaning and without problems to prevent pregnancy can easily be self-provided osteoporosis, which weakens bones and is likely to fracture. $ 700,000,000 class action lawsuit is filed against those responsible for Depo-Provera birth control injection prescribed more than 600 thousand years ago Canadians. Lawsuit contends that women with contraceptive efficacy has developed osteoporosis. Depo-Provera is an international drug conglomerate also responsible for popular prescription drugs Viagra Pfizer, Celebrex and Zoloft. Users will have the injection every three months and less than one percent chance of becoming the drug during pregnancy, the drug manufacturer’s website.
Tracey Bourque, 33, recently discovered, is the bone density of women of 55 years. Bourque and her doctor wonder if it is linked to his use of Depo-Provera. Depo-Provera was tested in 1980 and approved in Canada in 1997. Two million prescriptions were written for drugs in Canada over the past four years. A year ago, Pfizer warned Canadian authorities and U.S. drug can lead to bone loss. The United States emits an alarm shortly after saying drug should not be used for long-term contraception. Health Canada issued similar statements in the November 2004 and June and July this year. The data show that women who use Depo-Provera may lose significant (bone density), states the July Health Canada warning. The data also indicate that bone loss is even longer use and can not be completely reversible.
According to lawyer Glyn Hotz, Bourque is not the only person concerned. He told CTV that has filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of a group of women who are also concerned about a link between Depo-Provera and bone deterioration. We have seen people who have had multiple fractures, requiring knee replacements, he said Monday. We have someone who is in his twenties who is on the verge of a hip replacement.
