Glyphosate Weed Killer Exposure & Cancer
The debate over whether glyphosate exposure causes cancer has been ongoing for years. However, the IARC has classified glyphosate as "probably carcinogenic to humans" after reviewing approximately 1,000 studies on its link to cancer.
According to the University of Washington's Department of Environmental & Health Sciences, exposure to glyphosate can increase the risk of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma by 41%.
In response to numerous lawsuits, Bayer began removing glyphosate from its residential lawn and garden products in 2023. However, Roundup products containing glyphosate remain available to farmers and retailers.
Who Is Eligible for Roundup Lawsuit Compensation?
You might be able to sue over Roundup if you or a loved one:
- Were exposed to the weed killer Roundup
- Were diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or another related cancer
Even if your loved one has passed away due to Roundup-related cancer, you may still file a wrongful death lawsuit to seek justice.
