RALEIGH — Attorney General Jeff Jackson is urging eligible North Carolinians to claim the compensation they’re owed for overpaying for certain generic drugs.

Recently, a court preliminarily approved a plan by Attorney General Jackson and a coalition of 47 other states and territories to distribute funds from a series of settlements with drug manufacturers that allegedly conspired to raise generic drug prices. Affected customers nationwide will be eligible to receive restitution from several settlements, totaling $96.5 million.

Here’s what North Carolinians should do:

  • Check the list here and confirm whether you purchased a generic drug on the list between May 2009 and December 2019.
  • Call 1-866-290-0182, email [email protected], or visit www.AGGenericDrugs.com to determine whether you are eligible for compensation.
  • If you are eligible for compensation, submit a claim here.

    • “North Carolinians are getting money back to make up for unfairly high drug costs they paid in the past year,” said Attorney General Jeff Jackson. “We’re always going to hold companies accountable when they break the law and rig the system so they can charge people more.”

    Attorney General Jackson and the coalition have reached settlements with Glenmark, Lannett, Bausch, Apotex, Heritage, and Heritage’s parent company, Emcure. The coalition is involved in a series of antitrust cases:

  • The first complaint included Heritage and 17 other corporate defendants, two individual defendants, and 15 generic drugs.
  • The second complaint was filed in 2019 against Teva Pharmaceuticals and 21 of the nation’s largest generic drug manufacturers. The complaint named 16 individual senior executive defendants.
  • The third complaint, to be tried first, focuses on 80 topical generic drugs that account for billions of dollars of sales in the United States and names 26 corporate defendants and 10 individual defendants.
