Ed Blizzard Featured in Fox 26 Houston Report on Depo-Provera Brain Tumor Lawsuits
Firm founder Ed Blizzard was featured in a Fox 26 Houston news story covering litigation involving Pfizer’s birth control injection, Depo-Provera.
The report centered on Mr. Blizzard’s client, a Houston woman who developed a meningioma brain tumor after years of receiving Depo-Provera injections. The lawsuit alleges Pfizer failed to adequately warn women of the serious neurological risks linked to long-term use of the drug.
“This is an infuriating case of a pharmaceutical company putting profit over patients,” Mr. Blizzard told Fox 26.
This case is among hundreds of similar lawsuits filed nationwide. In February 2025, those cases were consolidated into multidistrict litigation (MDL) in the Northern District of Florida, where plaintiffs allege that Pfizer knew or should have known of the risks but failed to provide proper warnings. The lawsuit cites a French study published in the British Medical Journal that found prolonged Depo-Provera use increased the risk of intracranial meningioma by 555%.
