Some Physicians Now Refusing Ortho Evra Patch

NEW YORK -- The recent flurry of publicity surrounding the Ortho Evra contraceptive patch has resulted in some doctors refusing to prescribe the deadly drug. The Wall Street Journal reported yesterday that some doctors do not want to take chances after the manufacturer began including warnings of fatalities and stroke related to the patch. Lee Shulman, incoming board chair of the Association of Reproductive Health Professionals and a consultant to Ortho-McNeil, said the company expected a "decrease in use" of the patch.

Check out After Abortion's article "It was only a matter of time. ORTHO EVRA® ALERT" for further discussion and comments. I thank God that someone is coming their senses before it is too late. Like Annie, at After Abortion, if I was one of those duped and who'd suffered from these effects of this Patch, I, too, would probably be giving at least a local law firm a call to discuss my options. Or at least, I'd hope my surviving relatives would be.
