We were proud to have represented the lead whistleblower in Abbott’s 1.6 billion dollar settlement with the government which resolved claims involving the drug Depakote.
Whistleblowers can make a difference and this settlement is one example of how one individual can take action that will change the conduct of a pharmaceutical giant.

Reg-Abbott labs off-label promotion of Depakote.
I took Depakote for 6 years was ineffective for my condition PTSD,the doctor kept telling me to take it.
The saga of the schizophrenia drugs is one of incredible profit.Eli Lilly made $65 BILLION on Zyprexa franchise. Described as *the most successful drug in the history of neuroscience*.There is a whole underclass block of our society,including children in foster care that are the market for these drugs,but have little voice of protest if harmed by them.
