Depo-Provera Lawsuit Attorney

The Depo-Provera lawsuit alleges that Pfizer knew—and failed to properly warn—about the warning signs and risks of meningiomas caused by Depo-Provera injections, despite recent FDA updates regarding the drug’s risks.

Currently filed in the Northern District of Florida, the Depo-Provera lawsuit, or MDL No. 3140, is a consolidated suit, not a class action. A consolidated suit groups individual lawsuits into a single action for pretrial efficiency. If the case proceeds, these individual lawsuits will eventually return to their original courts for trial.

If you or a loved one used Depo-Provera continuously for one year or longer and suffered a subsequent brain or spinal tumor, you may qualify. Find out now with a free consultation with one of our Depo-Provera lawsuit lawyers.

The Depo-Provera lawsuit is currently made up of individual claims consolidated in MDL 3140; it is not a class action suit.

Plaintiffs claim that Pfizer, the maker of the birth control shot Depo-Provera, knew about the meningioma risks of the medication and failed to adequately warn patients. These claims are based on the established link between certain progesterone medications and intracranial meningioma, as well as Pfizer’s request for FDA changes to Depo-Provera’s warning label in 2024.

While meningiomas are typically benign, they can lead to severe complications such as vision and hearing impairment, memory issues, headaches, seizures, and speech difficulties. Speak to a doctor if you are concerned about these or other potential Depo-Provera lawsuit symptoms.

You may qualify for the Depo-Provera lawsuit if you:

• Received Depo-Provera injections continuously for an extended period of time (generally one year or longer, equating to four or more shots)
• Have a confirmed diagnosis of intracranial or spinal meningioma via imaging or pathology

The statute of limitations for the Depo-Provera lawsuit varies by state, but may be anywhere from one to six years after the date of injury or diagnosis (not the date of injection). If you are within this threshold and have adequate records to support your extended Depo-Provera use and meningioma diagnosis, call us for a free consultation.

We recommend reaching out to a Depo-Provera lawsuit attorney if you received Depo-Provera injections for an extended period of time and experienced one or more symptoms related to meningioma, such as:

• Headaches
• Vision or hearing changes
• Seizures
• Hormonal changes
• Weakness in limbs
• Memory issues
• Dizziness
• Loss of smell

Your health is always a first priority. If you are experiencing any of these or other symptoms, please talk to a doctor.

In order to qualify for the Depo-Provera lawsuit, you must have records that show your long-term use of the birth control shot and your associated meningioma diagnosis and symptoms.

Types of evidence needed may include:

• Medical records
• Brain/spinal MRI or CT scan results
• Prescription and pharmacy history
• Financial records
• Insurance records

Our Depo-Provera lawsuit lawyers may be able to help gather these necessary pieces of evidence in addition to expert testimony in support of your claim. Call, chat, or fill out an online contact form to learn more about your legal options.

The Depo-Provera lawsuit (aka MDL No. 3140), established in the Northern District of Florida, is ongoing, with individual suits currently in pretrial coordination. This means that there is still time to add your individual lawsuit to the consolidated claim.

Bellwether trials are expected to start for the Depo-Provera lawsuit in 2026-2027. These are test cases meant to represent the wider scope of claims and provide a clear picture of how individual lawsuits against Pfizer may fare, as well as potential settlement amounts. At this time, no global settlement amounts have been announced in the Depo-Provera lawsuit.

You may be eligible for both economic and non-economic compensation in a Depo-Provera lawsuit.

• Economic damages may include medical expenses, lost wages, and reduced earning capacity.
• Non-economic damages may include pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of quality of life.

In addition, families who have lost a loved one due to meningioma symptoms caused by extended Depo-Provera use may also be eligible to file for wrongful death compensation, including funeral costs and loss of companionship and support.
