Johnson & Johnson Talc Lawsuit Opens in Scotland | Glasgow News

Johnson & Johnson faces a historic legal blow in Scotland as a court approves a mass lawsuit allowing over 7,000 UK victims to sue over cancer allegedly caused by their talc-based baby powder—despite claims the company knew of potential asbestos contamination. The ruling opens the door for Scottish plaintiffs, who say they trusted the product for years, to seek justice in what could become the UK’s largest product liability case. While J&J pulled the product from UK shelves in 2023 and maintains its talc was safe, the verdict marks a major turning point for victims battling ovarian, mesothelioma, and abdominal cancers linked to the powder.
