Frank Mariconda started his day like any other, he got dressed for work, ate breakfast, and playfully kissed his wife goodbye, not knowing it would be the last time he would ever speak to her. Only 45 minutes later Frank received a call from his panicking mother-in-law, from his house. She had found her daughter Rosana laying on the bed dressed for work, eyes open, and unresponsive. Her 2 year old son putting band aids on his mothers arm. 24 hours later Mariconda’s perfectly healthy wife was dead from a stroke that he believes was induced by her NuvaRing birth control device she had begun using three weeks prior to the incident. Frank is joined by 37 others have filed claims that the makers of the NuvaRing, Organon USA, are responsible for causing blood-clot complications that resulted in amputations, pulmonary embolisms and death. "NuvaRing is not hazardous," said company spokeswoman Frances DeSena. "It's been tested and proven for the FDA. According to the New York Post, “The device became available by prescription in July 2002, marketed as a birth-control alternative to the pill or the patch. The NuvaRing - a 2-inch-diameter ring that emits progesterone and estrogen - is inserted into the vagina for 21 days of protection. It's taken out for the next seven days during the woman's period.” Steven Blau, of Blau & Brown said, “This is being marketed as a safe alternative to the patch, and it's not. We want the FDA to take notice of the misrepresentation by the drug company with respect to the safety and efficacy of the NuvaRing." I guess being approved by the FDA just doesn’t have as much credibility as it used to.
