Claudia Coffey of Fox 5 in Washington D.C. just reported on a story about another young woman, Jessica, who suffered from a blood clot in her leg after taking Yaz. Jessica says that her leg swelled up about twice its normal size and started turning purple. She was in the ICU for three days and in the hospital for six days. The story also mentions the FDA warning letter for Yaz regarding possible quality control problems in a factory in Germany. (You may remember that this is not the first time the FDA has warned the makers of Yaz.) Ms. Coffey also reported that the FDA sent her an email confirming that they are aware of adverse event reports with Yaz, but that they are unable to disclose whether specific label negotiations to the medication are being conducted.
