J&J to end sales of baby powder with talc globally next year.
- Johnson & Johnson is pulling baby powder containing talc worldwide next year after it did the same in the U.S. and Canada amid thousands of lawsuits claiming it caused cancer.The company has faced litigation alleging its talcum powder caused users to develop ovarian cancer through use for feminine hygiene or mesothelioma, a cancer that strikes the lungs and other organs.
However, demand for the company’s baby powder fell off, and J&J removed the talc-based product in most of North America in 2020. J&J said the change announced late Thursday will simplify its product selection and meet evolving global trends. J&J said then that it funded the subsidiary, named LTL Management, and established a $2 billion trust to pay claims the bankruptcy court determines that it owes.
