CONSUMER LAW GROUP is investigating a Canada-wide class action lawsuit against Indivior, Aquestive Therapeutics, Monosol, Reckitt Benckiser and Pharma Importing for manufacturing and selling the prescription drug Suboxone to vulnerable Canadians, which they knew or should have known carries with it serious health concerns.
Suboxone combines the active ingredients buprenorphine and naloxone. Buprenorphine is highly acidic and, as recognized by the FDA and British Columbia’s Ministry of Health, its dissolution in a user’s mouth poses a serious risk of causing dental erosion, decay and infections.
Suboxone is only available in Canada by prescription and is used to treat opioid abuse disorder by reducing withdrawal symptoms and the urge to consume opioids, while avoiding the cyclical symptoms associated with opioid use.
Numerous published scientific studies concluded that dissolvable buprenorphine posed significant risks of causing tooth decay, erosion, infections, and cavities at a level comparable to the use of methamphetamines. Despite this scientific evidence, the drug companies failed to adequately disclose this risk to consumers.
