Filing a Roundup Cancer Claim or Lawsuit in California
Roundup, a popular herbicide originally manufactured by agricultural giant Monsanto, which was later acquired by Bayer, has been labeled a “probable human carcinogen” by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. The main ingredient in Roundup, glyphosate, has been linked to various forms of cancer, including non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and other blood cell-related cancers. Roundup has also been linked to DNA and chromosomal damage in humans subjected to prolonged exposure to the weed killer.

What Is Roundup?
Roundup is a popular weed killer, or herbicide, widely used in the United States and around the world. It is available for both commercial and residential use and is often used to refer to all glyphosate-based or containing herbicides.
The toxicity of Roundup and related glyphosate-based herbicides depends largely on the formulation. For example, formulations for terrestrial use tend to be more toxic than those for aquatic use. However, recent studies have found a link between glyphosate and various health conditions, most notably cancer.

How Much Roundup Exposure Does It Take to Cause Health Issues?
Short-term exposure typically doesn’t cause problems, but there is no set point at which it becomes harmful. You’re at a higher risk if you:
- Work in agriculture, landscaping, gardening, or grounds keeping
- Regularly use it on your lawn or garden
- Apply Roundup and then eat, drink, or smoke without washing your hands
- Touch freshly sprayed plants
You can also be exposed to the chemicals in Roundup through eating non-organic produce.
