ATLANTA — The State of Georgia has joined a coalition of 50 states and territories in reaching two cooperation agreements and settlements with Heritage Pharmaceuticals and Apotex totaling $49.1 million.
The cooperation agreements and settlements resolve allegations that those two companies engaged in widespread, long-running conspiracies to artificially inflate and manipulate prices, reduce competition, and unreasonably restrain trade when it comes to generic prescription drugs.
The Apotex settlement includes a $17.6 million restitution fund for consumers and the Heritage settlement includes a $3.8 million restitution fund for consumers.
