What Is Roundup?
Roundup is an herbicide that contains glyphosate and is widely used for weed control in agriculture and landscaping. Each year, in the U.S., approximately 250 million pounds of glyphosate are sprayed on crops, commercial nurseries, lawns, driveways, sidewalks, parks, and golf courses.
What Are the Health Risks Associated With Exposure to Roundup?
Roundup has been linked to health risks such as non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, liver and kidney damage, reproductive problems, and endocrine system disruption. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has said that glyphosate, its main active ingredient, is likely to cause cancer in humans. It is also toxic to bees and other wildlife, and many countries have limited or banned its use.
What Is the Roundup Lawsuit?
The Roundup lawsuit is a group of lawsuits against Monsanto, the company that first made the herbicide Roundup. The lawsuits claim that using Roundup can cause non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and other types of cancer. In these lawsuits, people say that Monsanto didn't warn people enough about the possible health risks of Roundup and that the company hid or changed scientific data to downplay the product's dangers.
Thousands of individuals have filed lawsuits against Monsanto and its parent company, Bayer AG. The lawsuits have sparked a broader debate about the safety of glyphosate-based herbicides and the role of corporations in protecting public health.
Am I Eligible for a Roundup Lawsuit?
To qualify for Roundup compensation, you must have used Roundup in 1990 or later and received a non-Hodgkin's lymphoma diagnosis. The weed killer must have been used for at least a year before diagnosis, and a diagnosis was made at least three years after the first use.
