Who is qualified for compensation?
How can you know if you qualify to file a Depo shot claim? You will want to speak to a Depo-Provera law firm to get the details on your specific situation. In general, you will need to:
- Show that you or your loved one used Depo-Provera or an authorized generic version. Just two injections are enough; however, the longer you used the drug, the stronger your claim will be.
- Have a diagnosed meningioma brain tumor after using Depo-Provera.
- Gather medical records documenting your condition and your Depo-Provera use to establish the link.
The process of holding Pfizer liable for injuries caused by Depo-Provera is in its early stages. It is not yet known what evidence will be usable or required. A knowledgeable attorney can guide you.

FAQs
Why are women who took the Depo-Provera shot filing lawsuits against Pfizer?
Why would you file a Depo-Provera lawsuit? People are filing lawsuits against Pfizer, the maker of the Depo-Provera shot, because they suffered serious harm to their health due to side effects and complications from it. They accuse Pfizer of:
- Failing to disclose serious risks about the product
- Misrepresenting the safety of the product
- Defectively designing the drug
- Acting negligently during research and testing
Since it was first approved as a contraceptive by the FDA in 1992, its use has grown rapidly. The convenience of the drug led many women to decide to take the shot, up from 17 million in 1994 to 74 million in 2019. What they didn’t know was that Depo-Provera and generic versions of the drug allegedly have been linked to serious side effects, ranging from lost bone density and broken bones, blood clots and stroke, and brain tumors. Of these, studies have strongly linked brain tumors to the use of the drug.
If you are suffering from a brain tumor related to your Depo-Provera use, do not delay in starting your Depo lawsuit. Time to file may be limited, so it is important to get started to see if your claim qualifies.
How did Depo-Provera get approved by the FDA?
It took 25 years to get the FDA to approve Depo-Provera. It was rejected three times over safety concerns before legal and bureaucratic maneuvering led to the drug's approval in 1992.
Has Depo-Provera been recalled?
No full recall of Depo-Provera has been issued, but several batches have been recalled over quality control issues in the past, such as contamination or incorrect labeling. You are advised to monitor FDA Depo-Provera recalls and updates.
Is there a Depo-Provera class action lawsuit?
Because every Depo-Provera lawsuit is different and you may want to make individual decisions about your case and a potential settlement, you and most others will want to file in the MDL, or multidistrict litigation, instead of a class action lawsuit.
Has anyone received money from the Depo-Provera brain tumor lawsuit?
Because the Depo-Provera lawsuits are just starting, no settlements have yet been made.
Has Pfizer been involved in Depo-Provera lawsuits before the brain tumor lawsuits?
A Canadian class action lawsuit about bone density loss caused by Depo-Provera was settled in 2021, resulting in a $2M settlement.
