If you have taken Depo Provera and developed brain tumors, you may be eligible for compensation. Contact Dubin Law Group to see if you qualify.
At the Dubin Law Group, our Seattle lawyers fight to get the best possible result in personal injury cases of all types. Our team of attorneys brings nearly 200 years of cumulative experience to these cases.
Depo-Provera, an injectable contraceptive marketed for decades, has come under scrutiny due to severe risks tied to its high levels of synthetic progestin, which is known to be correlated with a fivefold increase in the likelihood of developing brain tumors known as meningioma.
If you were diagnosed with a brain tumor after using Depo-Provera, then you may be entitled to compensation. Speaking with a local Depo-Provera lawyer can help you understand the disease and hold the parent company, Pfizer, responsible. Find out whether you or a loved one qualify today.

Depo-Provera is a birth control injection administered every three months to prevent pregnancy. While it offers an effective contraceptive option, its synthetic progestin content has raised questions about its safety, especially amid hormone-sensitive conditions.

Depo-Provera has been available as an injectable form of birth control since 1992. Pfizer always advertised it as being safe and convenient. However, a recent study indicates that women who have used Depo-Provera for more than one year have over a fivefold increase in meningioma. Meningioma is usually noncancerous but can create pressure in the brain, resulting in neurological impairment. The most common symptoms include:
A meningioma tumor can even be life-threatening, and the treatment usually requires brain surgery.
Recently, lawsuits involving Depo-Provera have highlighted concerns over the product’s design, health risks and inadequate warning labels. Our attorneys believe that Pfizer knew or should have known about the significantly increased risk of brain tumors resulting from using its product and failed to provide warnings about the risk to women or to the physicians prescribing this treatment. Our lawyers are investigating claims for women who have experienced Depo-Provera-related brain tumors, arguing that users could have avoided this severe health crisis if Pfizer had provided proper warnings and information.
One primary complaint involves a design defect, with plaintiffs arguing that Pfizer failed to sufficiently warn about the high dose of synthetic progestin in Depo-Provera. Critics point to a safer alternative – Depo-SubQ Provera 104, with a lower dose – yet Pfizer continues to promote the higher-risk version, prompting strict liability claims.
Another focus is the potential for class-action suits and multidistrict litigation (MDL) as claims increase. Those harmed by Depo-Provera have legal options, such as filing a lawsuit, negotiating a settlement or joining a mass tort. Our team can help you make the best decision possible about how to proceed.
The implications of Depo-Provera use on the health and safety of women are alarming, and the legal landscape continues to evolve rapidly. If you have been diagnosed with a meningioma tumor following at least one year of using Depo-Provera, then you might be eligible for compensation.
