The trial for the Cantlay/Harper case, which was set to begin on Nov. 13, will now be dismissed, GSK said, adding it had also settled three remaining breast cancer cases in California related to the same drug. The latest settlements in California were related to cases due to go to trial in November, with a further set scheduled to begin in Delaware courts in January, GSK said. The company still faces about 79,000 cases related to Zantac in the United States, with 73,000 of them in Delaware. GSK did not admit any liability and said it would vigorously defend itself in any other Zantac cases. In June, GSK agreed to settle a similar lawsuit in California.

REUTERS/Brendan McDermid/Illustration/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsOct 11 (Reuters) - GSK (GSK.L) on Wednesday said it would confidentially settle another lawsuit in California alleging its discontinued heartburn drug Zantac caused cancer, as the British drugmaker sought to end costly litigation. The latest settlements in California related to cases due to go to trial in November, with a further set scheduled to begin in Delaware courts in January, GSK said. The company still faces about 79,000 cases related to Zantac in the United States, with 73,000 of them in Delaware. Late in June, the company agreed to settle a similar lawsuit with California resident James Goetz who alleged he developed bladder cancer after taking Zantac. The settlement could be read that GSK sees a risk that these Zantac cases are strong enough that the company might lose at trial, J.P Morgan added.

☆ Working women spend $15.4 billion more than men in out-of-pocket health costs, study finds

High health care costs are hitting women in the U.S. workforce much harder than men. Working women spend $15.4 billion more in out-of-pocket health expenses annually compared to their male counterparts, according to a new analysis of employer-sponsored health plans from Deloitte Consulting. The study found women spend 18% more than men on co-pays and deductibles, on average. The takeaway being that women get paid less, and that they pay more for health care," said Dr. Kulleni Gebreyes, U.S. chief health equity officer at Deloitte Consulting. Women tend to utilize more medical care than men, in part due to annual gynecological exams and the high costs of breast cancer imaging.

The hormonal changes alter acidity levels of the vagina, Dr. Streicher said, which can lead to recurrent urinary tract infections among menopausal women, creating discomfort in the area whether or not they are having sex. And some common health conditions among older people, like diabetes or cardiovascular disease, can also dry out the vagina, she added. Dr. Streicher recommends warming the lubricant because “cold is a vasoconstrictor, which will make you have even less natural lubrication, whereas heat is a vasodilator and will help the muscles relax,” she said. Vaginal moisturizers: These creams and gels can be found over the counter. Estrogen creams: Studies have repeatedly found that this prescription option is highly effective at reducing pain, including in the vestibule area.

One Saturday morning in June, Amy Simmons spotted some sparrows flitting around a coastal marsh in Maine. She and her two companions, all dedicated bird-watchers, quickly identified one of the foraging birds as a Nelson’s sparrow, a small, round bird with a yellow stripe over its eye. The stripe over this sparrow’s eye had a more saturated, orange tint, and its breast was speckled with black and white. It was a saltmarsh sparrow, a species threatened by sea level rise. Without significant conservation action, climate change could render the species extinct by the middle of this century, some scientists predict.
