Johnson & Johnson Baby Powder, Talc and Cancer: Talk to a Lawyer Who Can Help

Johnson’s Baby Powder Cancer Lawsuits and Settlements: What You Need to Know

Generations of women have used popular Johnson & Johnson talc products, including its well-known Johnson’s Baby Powder, believing they were not only effective, but safe. Perineal (genital) talc use for personal hygiene has been a common practice in the U.S. and other countries.

For decades, however, some scientific findings have linked Johnson & Johnson talc-containing products, some contaminated with asbestos, another silicate mineral, to ovarian cancer. As a result, many women who have been diagnosed with ovarian cancer after using certain Johnson & Johnson products can seek and receive compensation.
