Consumer Alert
If you were prescribed Suboxone® film, you may be eligible to get money
The FTC sued the makers of Suboxone®, a prescription drug to treat opioid addiction, alleging they were preventing patients from choosing lower priced generic versions of the drug. The companies agreed to pay $60 million to consumers to settle the FTC charges.
That means if you got a prescription for Suboxone® film in the United States between March 1, 2013 and February 28, 2019, you may be eligible for a payment.
Learn more and apply for a payment at ftc.gov/suboxone. When you apply, choose how you want to get your money: by check or by prepaid card.
The application deadline is December 1, 2020.
