South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley Urges Consumers to Check Their Eligibility for Compensation

PIERRE, S.D. (KELO.com) – South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley urges consumers to check their eligibility for compensation for certain generic drug purchases and to submit a claim for compensation.

The U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut granted preliminary approval to a plan to distribute settlement funds paid by generic drug manufacturers in exchange for settlement of claims that those companies illegally conspired to raise the prices of generic drugs.

“I will not allow South Dakota consumers to pay inflated prices for generic drugs,” said Attorney General Jackley. “Generic drug companies cannot be allowed to profit through illegally raised prices.”

South Dakota is part of a coalition of nearly all states and territories which have engaged in a series of antitrust cases against drug companies since 2016.  Settlements already announced have totaled $96.5 million.

Consumers who have purchased a generic drug listed here between May 2009 and December 2019, may be eligible for compensation. To determine eligibility, call 1-866-290-0182 (Toll-Free), email info@AGGenericDrugs.com or visit www.AGGenericDrugs.com.
