Johnson & Johnson has won a lawsuit in California against a woman who claimed the brand’s baby powder gave her cancer.
But minutes later, the firm lost a $247 million case in Texas over faulty hip replacements made by its orthopedic brand.
Meanwhile, J&J faces lawsuits by around 5,500 plaintiffs nationally asserting talc-related claims, largely based on claims it failed to warn women about the risk of developing ovarian cancer from the products.
