The potential outcomes of an Ozempic lawsuit vary based on the specifics of each case. While the legal process can be unpredictable, there are several possible results:
- Settlement: Many lawsuits, including those against pharmaceutical companies like Novo Nordisk, are often settled before reaching trial. A settlement involves the company agreeing to compensate the plaintiffs without admitting fault. This is a common outcome, as it allows both sides to avoid the time, expense, and uncertainty of a trial.
- Trial Verdict: If the case goes to trial, the jury or judge will determine whether Novo Nordisk is liable for the plaintiff’s injuries. If the plaintiff wins, they could receive compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more. However, the outcome of a trial is uncertain, and not all plaintiffs may win.
- Dismissal: Some cases may be dismissed if the court finds insufficient evidence to prove that Ozempic caused the alleged harm. This can occur at various stages of the lawsuit, including before trial or after motions are filed.
- Ongoing Litigation: In some cases, lawsuits can take years to resolve, especially if they are part of multidistrict litigation (MDL). It may take time for cases to be fully processed through discovery, motions, and potential appeals.
Each case has unique factors, so outcomes can differ significantly.
