Pfizer: Nationwide Recall Of Lo/OvralŽ-28Pfizer: Nationwide Recall Of Lo/OvralŽ-28
Pfizer Inc. announced today that it has voluntarily recalled 14 lots of Lo/OvralŽ-28 (norgestrel and ethinyl estradiol)Tablets and 14 lots of Norgestrel and Ethinyl Estradiol Tablets.
    IRVINE, CA, February 03, 2012 /LegalTelligence/ -- Birth control pills containing hormones are intended to be taken once a day but for seven days of each month placebo sugar pills are taken. The negligent and defective packaging caused an improper amount of hormone pills or placebo pills to be included in each monthly supply. This means that patients would have improper contraception and could become pregnant.

"It is hard to believe that Pfizer did not have proper quality control safeguards in the drug manufacturing and packaging process," said attorney Larry Eisenberg. "Claims of this type are for compensation for unintended pregnancies which could include expenses related to raising the child, emotional distress, medical expenses and loss of earnings during and after the pregnancy," said Eisenberg. It is a foregone conclusion that many women will be emotionally distraught that they could become pregnant due to a manufacturing error.
