Lawsuits Filed in Arizona Against Makers of Zicam

On Monday, June 22, 2009 more than 100 people filed claims against the makers of Zicam. The lawsuits seek compensation for loss of smell after using Zicam Nasal Gel Sprays and Zicam Nasal swabs. The lawsuits were filed in Maricopa County, Arizona.

The FDA warned consumers last week to stop using Zicam nasal cold remedies because they may cause anosmia (loss of smell). Since the warning was issued, hundreds of Plaintiffs have sought legal representation against Matrixx Initiatives, the Scottsdale, Arizona based company that makes Zicam products.
