Long-acting birth control INJECTION on the chopping block for link to BRAIN TUMORS

For decades, modern medicine has promised quick fixes - a pill or shot for every health concern. But time after time, widely used drugs have been linked to serious, sometimes life-threatening side effects discovered years after their approval. We've seen it with COVID injections failing to deliver "total protection," Vioxx being withdrawn over heart attack risks, antidepressants linked to suicidal thoughts in teens, and hormone replacement therapy later tied to breast cancer and cardiovascular problems.

Pfizer sued in US over contraceptive that women say caused brain tumours

The drugmaker Pfizer faces a US lawsuit brought on behalf of women who developed brain tumours, which they say are linked to their use of the company's contraceptive injection Depo-Provera. The class action lawsuit alleges that the US pharmaceutical company failed to warn women and doctors about the increased risk of developing an intracranial meningioma if Depo-Provera, a quarterly injection, is used for more than a year. A court hearing will take place in Pensacola, Florida, on Monday.
