Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella are birth control pills that have been found to have the potential to cause serious side- effects. Ocella is the generic equivalent of Yasmin. These birth control pills contain ethinyl estradiol and the new "fourth generation" progestin, drospirenone (DRSP). Unfortunately, these birth control pills have been linked to the following side-effects:
Death
Blood clots in the legs (DVT or Deep Vein Thrombosis)
Blood clots in the lungs (PE or Pulmonary Embolism)
Portal Vein Thrombosis and blood clots in other veins
Stroke
Heart attack
Gall bladder complications requiring surgery
Two studies recently published in the British Medical Journal in August 2009 indicated a higher risk of venous blood clots for women taking progestins such as drospirenone.
