Depo Provera Brain Tumor

If you or a loved one developed meningioma, a type of brain tumor, after receiving at least four consecutive injections of Depo-Provera, Depo-SubQ Provera, or an authorized generic version, you may have a legal claim.

Pharmaceutical companies, including Pharmacia & Upjohn Company LLC, Greenstone LLC, A-S Medication Solutions, Prasco Laboratories, and Preferred Pharmaceuticals Inc., manufactured and distributed these contraceptive injections without adequately warning users about the potential risk of developing meningiomas.

At Mancini Law Group P.C., we are aggressively investigating these claims to hold negligent manufacturers accountable.

Meningiomas are slow-growing brain tumors that form in the meninges, the protective layers around the brain and spinal cord. While typically benign, meningiomas can cause serious neurological complications as they grow, including:

• Chronic headaches
• Vision problems
• Hearing loss
• Memory loss or cognitive impairment
• Seizures
• Difficulty balancing or walking

Recent studies have linked prolonged exposure to medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA)—the active ingredient in Depo-Provera—to an increased risk of developing meningiomas, particularly with repeated use.

You may be eligible for compensation if:

• You received at least four consecutive injections of Depo-Provera, Depo-SubQ Provera, or an authorized generic version.
• You were later diagnosed with meningioma through MRI or CT scans.
• You experienced symptoms requiring medical intervention (e.g., surgery, radiation, or ongoing treatment).

Manufacturers have a duty to warn consumers about known risks associated with their drugs. Evidence suggests that drugmakers were aware of the increased meningioma risk associated with prolonged use of medroxyprogesterone acetate but failed to provide proper warnings to patients and healthcare providers.

If you or a loved one suffered from meningioma after receiving multiple injections of Depo-Provera or its generic equivalents, you may be entitled to compensation for:

• Medical expenses (surgeries, imaging, and ongoing care)
• Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
• Pain and suffering
• Emotional distress
• Long-term disability
