If you reside in California and purchased certain dog Cosequin® Products for personal use between May 3, 2016, and May 6, 2022, you may be eligible to receive benefits from a class action Settlement.
A $11.5 million settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit against Nutramax Laboratories, Inc. and Nutramax Laboratories Veterinary Sciences, Inc. (together, “Defendants”). The lawsuit alleges Defendants misrepresented the benefits and effectiveness of certain canine supplements branded under the name Cosequin® both in advertising and packaging. You are a Class Member if the following Class definition applies to you: all persons residing in California who purchased qualifying canine Cosequin® products for personal use use between May 3, 2016 and May 6, 2022. The qualifying canine Cosequin® products are Cosequin® DS Maximum Strength Chewable Tablets; Cosequin® DS Maximum Strength Plus MSM Chewable Tablets; Cosequin® Maximum Strength Plus MSM Chewable Tablets; Cosequin® with MSM Chewable Tablets; Cosequin® DS Maximum Strength Plus MSM Soft Chews; Cosequin® Maximum Strength Plus MSM Soft Chews; and Cosequin® with MSM Soft Chews. Class Members who submit a timely and valid Claim Form are eligible for a Settlement Payment of $25 per unit of Cosequin® Products purchased between May 3, 2016, and May 6, 2022, up to a maximum of $150.
These rights and options—and the deadlines to exercise them—are explained on this website.
The Court must still decide whether to approve the Settlement, attorneys’ Fee and Expense Award, and service awards. No Settlement benefits will be provided unless the Court approves the Settlement.
