While the maker of OxyContin is working with the FDA and attempting to develop one of the only abuse-resistant drugs available, too many suffering from the impact of drug abuse – some question their motives. Could it simply be a response to the OxyContin patients who have filed suits against Purdue for their addictions, or claims based on the illicit abuse of the drug.

We believe that Purdue Pharma and Abbott Laboratories should be held liable for:

• providing inadequate warnings to healthcare providers regarding the potential for abuse
• over promoting the drug and questionable marketing techniques
• defective design associated with the easily removed “time-release” coating that allowed dangerously high dosages
