About the Case

Beginning in 2014, numerous lawsuits were filed in federal courts throughout the country against Johnson & Johnson, Janssen Pharmaceuticals and Bayer Corporation — the manufacturers of Xarelto. The plaintiffs, who suffered from internal bleeding, infections and other injuries, allege the manufacturers failed to warn about the risks of taking Xarelto. The lawsuits were transferred and consolidated into a single multi district litigation (MDL) in the Eastern District of Louisiana under Judge Eldon Fallon in December 2014. At its peak, the Court had over 30,000 cases in the MDL.

After years of discovery and bellwether trials, Bayer and Janssen Pharmaceuticals announced a $775 million deal in March 2019 to settle nearly 25,000 of the pending lawsuits. Under the terms of the settlement, neither company admitted liability but agreed to the deal to avoid the costs associated with protracted litigation.

Common signs of bleeding include:

  • Headaches and feeling dizzy or weak
  • Nosebleeds that happen often
  • Unusual bleeding from gums
  • Menstrual bleeding that is heavier than normal
  • Coughing up or vomiting blood
  • Unexpected bleeding or bleeding that lasts a long time
  • Pain, swelling, or new drainage at wound sites
  • Bright red or black stool
