Talc Lawsuit News & Updates HubWhat Are Talc & Baby Powder Claims?
For decades, talc-based baby powder and body powders were used by millions of people. Lawsuits allege that some talc products contained asbestos or that talc itself, when used in the genital area, increases the risk of ovarian cancer. Other claims involve mesothelioma, a cancer linked to asbestos exposure. Johnson & Johnson has faced tens of thousands of claims and discontinued talc-based baby powder in the U.S. in 2020 and globally in 2023. Litigation is ongoing and procedurally complex—involving federal multidistrict litigation (MDL), bankruptcy filings, and multiple defendants.
