There has also been a class action suit filed against Johnson & Johnson over talcum powder, but women who allege they have contracted cancer from talc might want to consider filing their own separate suits.
The big difference is that with individual suits women have pursued compensation for medical bills, pain and suffering, and lost wages, among other things. Those who are part of the class action are suing only for recovery of the cost of the product, regardless of existence of a cancer diagnosis.
