Lupron lawsuit is NOT about 'damage done'From: anonymous (anonymous@obgyn.net)Thu Dec 30 11:15:35 2004
The lawsuit is all about money and has nothing whatsoever to do with people who were 'damaged' by taking the drug. Class action lawsuits always sound like a good idea but the only people who really make any money on them are the lawfirms that jump on them. The individuals 'represented' by these firms rarely see a single cent. Anybody remember the infamous side-mounted gas tanks on GMC pickup trucks? I had one of those trucks, know what my "reward" was? A $1000 coupon good towards the purchase of one of these 'selected vehicles' (followed by a list of cars and trucks) - all of which were out of my budgetary reach of course. If you have suffered ill-effects from lupron being prescribed to you inappropriately then you can indeed file reports about the side-effects and after effects you have personally experienced. Both the US and Canada have forms for doing this online. For the US contact the FDA and in Canada start with Health Canada. the other poster who included this url had a " in his url so it doesn't work - here it is corrected: http://www.lupronlaw.com The Lupron® lawsuits allege that defendants TAP Pharmaceutical Products Inc. ("TAP"), Abbott Laboratories ("Abbott"), and Takeda Chemical Industries, Ltd. ("Takeda") unlawfully engaged in a fraudulent scheme and conspiracy to raise the prices for Lupron® paid by patients and their insurers across the country causing them to overpay for the drug. Lupron® is used for the treatment of prostate cancer in men, endometriosis, uterine fibroids and infertility in women, and precocious puberty in children. The plaintiffs are all purchasers of Lupron®.
