UPDATE: Top Class Actions viewers started receiving settlement checks dated Feb. 2, 2021 from the Aggrenox generic drug delay class action settlement worth up to $175.86. Congratulations to everyone who filed a claim and got PAID!
Boehringer Ingelheim and Teva Pharmaceutical, among others, have agreed to pay $54 million to end a class action lawsuit alleging the company delayed the availability of a less-expensive generic version of Aggrenox (aspirin/extended-release dipyridamole), through anticompetitive agreements.
The defendants include Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Barr Pharmaceuticals, Duramed Pharmaceuticals, and various marketing and other subsidiaries. The Aggrenox class action lawsuit alleges that indirect purchasers of Aggrenox unfairly paid a higher price for the drug when one drug maker, Barr, acquired Teva, stalling the introduction of a generic equivalent onto the market.
Under the terms of the settlement, defendants do not admit any wrongdoing, but will pay $54 million to Class Members, along with attorneys’ fees and other costs.
Class Members include those who purchased or paid for some or all of the purchase price for Aggrenox and/or its generic versions in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Arizona, California, Colorado, District of Columbia, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, West Virginia, and Wisconsin from Nov. 30, 2009 through Dec. 22, 2017 for consumption by themselves or family.
A second set of Class Members includes those who paid and/or reimbursed for Aggrenox or generic versions of Aggrenox, in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Arizona, California, Colorado, District of Columbia, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oregon (2010 or after), Rhode Island (purchases after July 15, 2013), South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, West Virginia, and Wisconsin for consumption by your members, employees, insured, participants or beneficiaries from Nov. 30, 2009 though Dec. 22, 2017.

When will the money be distributed?
Talked to claims administrator, no mention of appeals..checks should go out within a few months hopefully.
Mail the checks please!
Final judgement was entered on July 19. Read documents. There were no appeals filed
That person, who identified himself as B stands for bullshit. I noticed, almost every class action claim I filed, will be one coo-coo, who writes fake information.
Debra L …thanks
Received the following email from the Claims Administrator on Monday. No mention of appeals.
Thank you for your inquiry in the Aggrenox Antitrust Settlement.
We can confirm that we have received your claim. Please be advised there are no further claim status updates at this time.
There is currently no known timeframe for distribution. Generally speaking in similar cases like this one it takes about a year from the claims filing deadline (which in this case is September 14, 2018) before distribution takes place. Sometimes it can be quicker. Sometimes it can take longer. It all depends on how long it takes to finish the processing and auditing.
Should you have additional questions, please visit the case website at http://www.InReAggrenoxAntitrustlitigation.com, call our settlement helpline at 800-494-2165, or reply to this email.
Regards,
Claims Administrator
Appeals have been filed for this one.
When was the appeal filed and do you know the new court date? I have been googling information concerning this litigation since the final approval and have not been able to retrieve any new information.
I was told by the settlement administrator there was an appeal.
I was just told on 10/8 by claims administratorthat distributions are being processed no mention of any appeals.
It says it was granted pay out so several of us want to know when itll be paid we wait long enough to get the little bit of money back that we shouldnt have gotten screwed out of in the beginning
