Lankes v. Haleon US, Inc.

What this case is about

Consumers are suing Haleon US, the company behind well-known health and consumer brands, alleging that the company made misleading claims on its product packaging and marketing materials. The plaintiffs contend that Haleon overstated or misrepresented the benefits, ingredients, or effectiveness of one or more of its consumer health products, leading shoppers to pay more than they otherwise would have or to purchase products they would not have bought had they known the truth. The lawsuit seeks to represent a class of consumers across the United States who purchased the affected products during a defined time period. Plaintiffs are seeking compensation for their financial losses, along with changes to how the company markets and labels its products going forward.
