Associated Press FinanceJ&J subsidiary proposes paying about $6.48B over 25 years to settle talc ovarian cancer lawsuits
A subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson is now proposing to pay approximately $6.48 billion over 25 years as part of a settlement in the U.S. to cover allegations that its baby powder containing talc caused ovarian cancer. The lawsuits filed against J&J had alleged its talcum powder caused users to develop ovarian cancer, through use for feminine hygiene, or mesothelioma, a cancer that strikes the lungs and other organs. The claims contributed to drop in J&J’s sales of baby powder, prompting the company to stop selling its talc-based products in 2020.
