MONTREAL, Nov. 28, 2025 /CNW/ - On November 13, 2025 the Superior Court of Québec (the "Court") approved a settlement reached on behalf of all individuals and the estates and family members of individuals in Canada who were prescribed and took REXULTI® between February 16, 2017 and August 23, 2025 and experienced Compulsive Behaviours and Impulse Control Disorders, namely, compulsive gambling, hypersexuality, compulsive shopping/spending, and binge-eating. The Defendants are the companies responsible for the development, market approval, research, testing, manufacture, and distribution of REXULTI® in Canada.
The Settlement provides for payment of CDN $4.75 million, which will be used to pay compensation for Approved Claims, $118,750.00 in satisfaction of the claims of the Public Health Insurers, the costs of notice and administration, and Court-approved Class Counsel legal fees in the amount of $1,425,000.00, disbursements and taxes. The Court has appointed MNP Ltd. as Administrator of the Settlement.
Settlement Benefits will be distributed in accordance with the Distribution Protocol approved by the Court. Not all Class Members will be eligible for compensation. The Defendants have no role in the determination of Settlement Class Member eligibility to participate in the Settlement or the allocation of benefits available to Settlement Class Members.
The Court has not made any determination of the merits of the claims. The Settlement is a compromise of disputed claims and is not an admission of liability or wrongdoing of the Defendants.
Important Deadline: To be eligible for compensation, Class Members must submit a completed Claim Form to the Administrator no later than July 27, 2026. If you do not file a claim by this deadline, you may not be able to claim a portion of the Settlement and your claim will be extinguished. As a result, it is necessary that you act without delay.
