Yasmin & Yaz Side Effects

Over 50 reports of Yasmin or Yaz deaths were reported to the FDA between the first quarter of 2004 and the third quarter of 2008, according to some of the complaints filed in lawsuits against the drugs’ manufacturer, Bayer.

The deaths involved women as young as 17 and included cardiac arrests, pulmonary embolisms and strokes, with elevated levels of potassium in the blood frequently reported as the cause of these health-related tragedies.
