The Yaz and Yasmin birth control pills, as well as generic Ocella, are made with a type of progestin called drospirenone.

Drospirenone can elevate the body's potassium levels, which can lead to a condition called hyperkalemia in certain patients. Hyperkalemia may result in potentially serious heart and health problems.

Adverse Events reported to the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) involving Yaz and Yasmin include:

heart arrhythmias

electrolyte imbalance

hyponatremis, hyperkalemia, hyperkalemic arrhythmias

atrial fibrillation

tachycardia, bradycardia, myocardial infarction

stroke

transient ischemic attack

blood clots

embolisms, and

sudden death

If you have experienced serious side effects after taking Yaz, you may be entitled to file a lawsuit.

A lawyer with experience in birth control litigation can help evaluate your claim.

Many women around the country have suffered from life-threatening pulmonary embolisms related to the Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella birth control pills but are unaware they have a right to seek monetary compensation by filing a claim against the manufacturer.
