What is Depo-Provera?

Depo-Provera (medroxyprogesterone acetate) is an injectable contraceptive that prevents pregnancy for up to three months per dose. The drug is a progestin-only birth control method administered via intramuscular injection, commonly used by women seeking long-term contraception.

While marketed as safe and effective, serious side effects have come to light, particularly an increased risk of certain brain tumors. Lawsuits allege that Pfizer, the manufacturer, failed to disclose these risks to patients and doctors.

Health risks linked to Depo-Provera

Depo-Provera Use Linked To Brain TumorsScientific research has identified dangerous side effects linked to Depo-Provera, with the most serious being brain tumors such as meningioma.

Meningioma

Meningioma is a type of brain tumor that develops in the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. These tumors may be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Studies suggest that prolonged use of Depo-Provera increases the risk of developing multiple meningiomas.

Symptoms of meningioma include:

  • Severe headaches
  • Vision problems, including double vision or blurred vision
  • Seizures
  • Memory loss or cognitive impairment
  • Loss of balance or coordination

Lawsuits against Pfizer over Depo-Provera

Women across the country have filed lawsuits against Pfizer, alleging that the pharmaceutical company knew or should have known about the risks of meningioma tumors but failed to warn doctors and consumers.

The lawsuits claim that Pfizer:

  • Negligently designed Depo-Provera without proper safety testing.
  • Failed to disclose the risk of benign and malignant meningioma tumors.
  • Did not update warning labels despite emerging scientific evidence.
  • Put profits over patient safety.

If Pfizer had properly warned patients about these risks, many women could have chosen a safer alternative.
