BIRMINGHAM, Alabama - Pfizer Inc. has reached an undisclosed settlement in a lawsuit filed by a Demopolis man who claims the company's smoking cessation drug Chantix caused him to have suicidal thoughts and other psychological problems after he began taking it in 2007.
A trial over claims in the lawsuit was to begin Jan. 23 and was to have been the first test case to be tried among more than 2,600 lawsuits filed in federal court nationwide making claims about Chantix.
Ernest Cory, attorney for Billy G. Bedsole Jr., told U.S. District Judge Inge P. Johnson this morning that a settlement had been reached with Pfizer in the case during a hearing this morning. He told her that attorneys should have an order to her in the next 30 days for her to dismiss Bedsole's case.
