East St. Louis, ILUS District Judge David Herndon recently dismissed 23 Yasmin side effects lawsuits against drugmaker Bayer, citing a lack of factual evidence to back up the claims, the Madison Record reports.
In most of the cases, attorneys blamed Bayer for Yasmin gallbladder problems, including cases where the gallbladder needed to be removed, according to the news provider. Other lawsuits alleged that strokes and vein disorders were side effects from the use of the drug.
The lawsuits came from a number of different states, including two each from Missouri, Mississippi and Arizona, the news source said.
An attorney wrote that each plaintiff needed to serve a fact sheet that included a signed declaration and an authorization to release records. He said that important information was left off all of the fact sheets.
"In addition, in most cases, plaintiffs did not sign the plaintiff fact sheet declaration or provide responsive and substantially complete answers to plaintiff fact sheet questions regarding personal and family medical history," the attorney wrote.
