Does anyone know if there is a class action law suit against Eli Lilly?  Does anyone know about any legal proceedings against Eli Lilly?

 

Have any doctors been sued over prescribing Cymbalta?

 

Thank you.

There have been a number of class action lawsuits over Cymbalta that make interesting reading. At this point I still know of at least 3 active ones.

 

Drs have no liability on this issue for several reasons. If they follow the manufactures guidelines in prescribing it they are pretty much off the hook. They have the power and authority to make decisions about its use even if it is not approved for that use by the FDA (off label use) and of course they are not liable because they are gods.

 Are these lawsuits class action or individual?  I would love to join a class action suit.  I'm sure my anger is exacerbated by the discontinuation, but this is just awful.

 

BTW, who exactly are you?  Are you the moderator for this site?  How did you become so knowledgable on this topic?

 

Thanks.
