What is a Paragard IUD?

ParaGard is an intrauterine device (IUD), that is the only non-hormonal form of IUD intended to provide long-term birth control. Manufactured by Teva USA, the paragard IUD is a T-shaped piece of plastic wrapped in copper wire and inserted into the uterus. The Copper wire is used to produce an inflammatory reaction inside the uterus. This inflammatory reaction is toxic to sperm and eggs, therefore preventing pregnancy. In addition, it is intended to last for up to 10 years, and easily be removed when done. Unfortunately, this is not the case, many women who have used the Paragard IUD have had complications upon removal. Since 2010, the FDA has received more than 1600 complaints related to the IUD. The following events have been noted in some of these FDA complaints.

• A Paragard copper IUD broke inside of the patient and the device had to be surgically removed.

• After 6.5 years a paragard IUD was removed only to reveal that both arms were missing from the device. Later a sonogram was used to reveal the device’s arms embedded in the patient’s uterus.

• In 2014, a single hospital reported four separate incidents of the paragaurd copper IUD breaking upon removal.

A number of individuals who have suffered injury or complications as a result of paragard birth control fracture have opted to file a Paragard IUD lawsuit against Teva USA. Claiming that Teva USA was well aware of the dangers posed by their paragard copper IUD, but that they continued to make and market these devices without sufficient safety warnings, putting profit over patient safety.
