On November 7, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals issued an Order in Huertas v. Bayer US LLC, No. 23-2178, reversing the District of New Jersey’s prior ruling dismissing the plaintiffs’ claims related to Bayer’s Lotrimin and Tinactin antifungal spray products “contaminated with benzene,” which “has been labeled a human carcinogen and linked to cancers[.]” “In October 2021, Bayer voluntarily recalled certain Lotrimin and Tinactin spray products after it discovered benzene in samples of the products.”

For further inquiries related to this matter, please contact Timothy J. Peter at tpeter@faruqilaw.com.
