Ortho Evra Side Effects
Ortho Evra side effects range from mild to severe in
nature. Although some effects are tolerable, others may become enough
of a risk to the patient’s overall health to prompt them to discontinue
their use of Ortho Evra.
Some of the common Ortho Evra side effects include:
• headache
• dizziness
• menstrual cramps
• nausea and vomiting
• breast symptoms
• abdominal pain
• change in appetite
• nervousness
• depression
• loss of scalp hair
• rash
• vaginal infections
More serious Ortho Evra side effects are also possible.
Some patients experience problems such as difficulty wearing contacts,
vaginal bleeding, melasma, fluid retention, raised blood pressure, and
skin irritation at the point of application.
The most dangerous Ortho Evra side effects include
an increased risk of blood clots, heart attacks, strokes, deep vein
thrombosis, and pulmonary embolism. The elevated levels of estrogen
found in an Ortho
Evra patient’s bloodstream are thought to significantly
increase the risk of suffering from these life-threatening conditions.
Unfortunately, dozens of women have already died because of these Ortho
Evra side effects and their families are currently seeking
compensation through a lawsuit.
Those who have been injured by the drug but have not been hospitalized
may still be eligible to receive compensation.
