The 26,000 cases in litigation for diabetes are in process of being settled with final details of payout to the claimants, and the award amount for this permanent body damage is insulting. The drug was marketed illegally, and it is my opinion if the drug wasn't on the market in such a reckless way (thanks to the FDA for approval?)these patients who may have taken the antipsychotic for off-label use might not be diabetic today!
A statement in the ABC news clip:
AstraZeneca..."made patients into guinea pigs in an unsupervised drug test."--Michael Levy
I agree and the drug test continues! the drug is being dosed out to Veterans for PTSD, to people for insomnia, and used in behavior control settings such as the incarcerated youth in Louisiana and New Orleans restrained with antipsychotics, where Seroquel is one of the drugs.
Page 9 of the Seroquel Lawsuit blog host of settlement document packet pages shows that claimants in the lawsuit who were Medicaid, Medicare patients will have part of their award money removed from final payout to pay back the Government. The Government fined AstraZeneca $520 million already and now the plaintiffs--the injured person---pays back as well.
In my opinion all of the payout to the claimants, which pay attorney fees and possible liens should have been covered as part of what AstraZeneca paid. The injured claimant is receiving such a lowball award, anything removed from that is a smack in the face, an insult to injury and furthers the atrocity that has happened to them, as victims of corporate crime, lies, skewed studies, buried studies and a massive marketing plan that in the end place patent over patient, and profit before patient.
Would you "sign here"?
