Roundup is a common herbicide used by many homes and businesses for lawn care. What most users don’t know is that extended use of this product (2 weeks straight or at least 30 days in a year) has been linked to causing cancer and diseases like Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma. Most households don’t tend to use weed killer for 14 days straight, but lawn care employees or farmers are at a higher risk of developing diseases or even dying from the use of this product.

Viread, Stribild, Atripla, Truvada, and Complera are all TDF medications that have been linked to several serious health conditions. Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF) is a medication commonly used to treat hepatitis B and HIV. Your medication should never cause you further injuries. This includes chronic kidney diseases, severe or fatal renal insufficiency, loss of bone density, bone breaks and fractures, bone necrosis, osteoporosis, osteomalacia, and more. If these were not preexisting conditions, there’s a chance TDF may have caused them.

Exactech hip and knee replacements have been recalled for having defective liners and inserts that have caused injuries to the thousands of people who have used the products since 2004. The defective replacements have been linked to causing bone loss, fractures, loosening, or necessary revision surgery. These are all painful, expensive side effects. Many people have received Exactech recall letters, but those who haven’t may have still been affected if they had their knee/hip surgery at a specific hospital or had a revision surgery within 10 years of the initial implant.

Paraquat is a commercially-used weed killer. While households don’t have access to this product, many people working at or living near industrial farms are at risk of contracting Parkinson’s disease. Coming into contact with Paraquat (inhaling, touching, applying) for at least 8 days after 1964 leads to an increased risk of developing Parkinson’s. Paraquat is still commonly used by farms for weed-killing, so it’s very likely there are millions of people coming into contact with this deadly product for longer than 8 days.
