The Pharmaceutical Company Is Going To Admit A Share In The Fault Of The Opiate Crisis
The US pharmaceutical company Purdue Pharma, which produces the painkiller OxyContin, which, according to experts, helped trigger the opiate crisis in the US, blames three federal lawsuits in a settlement of more than $ 8 billion. This was stated for the Associated Press by representatives of the US Department of Justice, who spoke on condition of anonymity. However, the settlement agreement does not release any of the managers or owners of the company from criminal liability. The prosecution continues. It is estimated that the opiate crisis, ie the development of opiate dependence and cases of overdose, has been associated with more than 470,000 deaths in the United States since 2000. In addition to paying fines to the US government, Purdue Pharma will agree to pay $ 2.8 billion in damages as part of its civil liability settlement. Purdue Pharma will be transformed into a public charity, meaning it will be run by a foundation that seeks to balance the foundation's interests with those of the American public and public health, officials of the Department of Justice said.İLGİLİ HABERLER
