Unless the pharmaceutical companies opt to settle, the court will make the decision as to whether the companies lied and are at least partially responsible for the opioid crisis. Much like other lawsuits where plaintiffs claim a drug was dangerous and harmed them, it’s possible that people would have made a different choice or asked more questions had they been presented with information related to addiction and opioid use. Perhaps doctors wouldn’t have prescribed them as liberally…and maybe we wouldn’t lose 46 people each day to overdoses.
