Adderall XR Settlement
- $14,750,000 has been agreed upon for settlement of class action law suit
- Claim form can be completed online by class members wishing to participate
A $14,750,000 settlement has recently been agreed upon to settle the Barba v. Shire U.S., Inc. class action lawsuit. The plaintiffs in the case allege that Shire delayed and lessened the availability of generic versions of the drug Adderall XR by filing false patent suits, filing a false Citizen Petition, entering into financial agreements with generic drug manufacturers, creating shortages of generic versions by supplying less than the agreed amount, and by paying rebates to managed care organizations that agreed to the preferred placement of Adderall XR. Shire has denied all of the claims and allegations but has agreed to the multi-million dollar Adderall RX settlement to avoid further litigation costs and risks associated with a trial. Individuals that believe they are class members of the Adderall XR settlement class can complete an online claim form to receive compensation.
