From staff and wire reports
AstraZeneca PLC, which has its U.S. headquarters in Fairfax, was sued
by Arkansas for falsely claiming its antipsychotic medicine Seroquel
was safer than less-expensive drugs and failing to warn of its risks.
AstraZeneca has engaged in a “course of corporate misconduct and
misrepresentation” in violating numerous state laws, Arkansas Attorney
General Dustin McDaniel said in a lawsuit filed yesterday on behalf of
the state’s behavioral health and Medicaid divisions.
