Birth Control Packaging Error
In 2011 there was a recall on eight oral contraceptives.
 "This caused women to take placebo pills during the week they should have been taking hormone pills, leaving them at risk for conception", 
 
Endo Pharmaceuticals said that it had been able to confirm that one blister pack was defective. This meant that "This caused women to take placebo pills during the week they should have been taking hormone pills, leaving them at risk for conception".
 
The women affected are now seeking millions in damages due to the suffering, pain, medical costs and price of raising the children that they had not planned to have.
A lawsuit has been filed in Philadelphia which is awaiting the response of the pharmaceutical companies.
 
Those products included in the recall were Cyclafem, Emotiquette, Glidess FE, Orsythia, Previfem and Tri-Previfem. More than 3.2 million blister packs of pills were recalled.
