After the 2002 study was published in the July 2002 issue of JAMA, the American Medical Association’s journal, hundreds of lawsuits were filed to recover damages for injuries suffered by women who had taken Prempro.

For example, three women in Boston filed Prempro litigation. Two of them have developed blood clots after several years on HRT therapy with Prempro and the third has developed breast cancer. The Prempro attorney for these three women argues that Prempro was unreasonably dangerous for long-term use and that the defendants, including Wyeth, promoted the drug therapy without doing necessary long-term clinical trials to find out if the therapy was safe enough to go on the market.

Prempro lawsuits claim that Wyeth did not do adequate safety testing, and promoted the drug without knowing if it was safe. Wyeth is also accused of withholding information about dangerous side effects from the public, placing the users of Prempro at deadly risk.

At least two Prempro class action lawsuits have been filed, but neither Prempro class action has been successful in getting class action certification. Certification was denied in an Arkansas federal court in 2005 and a suit in Florida state court was denied certification by an appeals court in February 2006. These ruling have no effect on individual Prempro lawsuits. They only mean that individuals who have been damaged have to bring their own lawsuits.
