Attorney General Brown today joined a coalition of 48 states and territories announcing a $29.6 million settlement with Glenmark to resolve allegations that it engaged in a widespread, long-running conspiracy with other generic drug manufacturers to inflate prices, and unreasonably restrain trade with regard to numerous generic prescription drugs.
As part of the settlement agreement, Glenmark will cooperate with the states in the ongoing multistate litigation against 33 corporate defendants and 25 individual executives. The company has further agreed to a series of internal reforms to ensure fair competition and compliance with antitrust laws.
“Generic drugs are created to be the affordable option. Glenmark broke that promise to Utah families by manipulating prices behind the scenes and driving up drug prices,” said Attorney General Derek Brown. “This settlement holds Glenmark accountable and gives Utahns who were overcharged a path to compensation.”
Utah’s share of the settlement is an estimated $258,542.01, dependent on the number of claims received from Utah consumers.
The Glenmark settlement follows settlements with Lannett, Bausch, Apotex, and Heritage totaling $66.95 million. This latest settlement comes as the States prepare for the first trial concerning this conspiracy expected to begin in Hartford, Connecticut in late 2026.
If you purchased a generic prescription drug manufactured by Glenmark, Lannett, Bausch, Apotex, or Heritage between May 2009 and December 2019, you may be eligible for compensation.
