Description
On May 28, 1973, Judy Roth suffered a stroke allegedly occasioned by her ingestion of birth control pills manufactured by Ortho Pharmaceutical Corporation and prescribed for her by Dr. Charles D. Bell and Dr. Carl W. Allen. On May 18, 1976, Mrs. Roth and her husband, Ronald Roth, filed suit against Drs. Bell and Allen, alleging negligence, and against Ortho, alleging negligence and strict liability. Mr. Roth, as guardian ad litem for Mrs. Roth's three minor children, Troy, Rickie and Lisa Collins, also claimed damages on the same allegations ""for loss of companionship, advice, destruction of the parent-child relationship, and future support, and emotional injury."" The trial court granted the defendants' motions for dismissal of the children's action for failure to state a claim, and denied the motions of Drs. Bell and Allen for summary judgment against the Roths. Appeal is taken from the dismissal of the children's action, and Drs. Bell and Allen cross-appeal the denial of their motions for summary judgment.
