Did you buy prescriptions at Walgreens using insurance between 2007 and 2024? You might be owed money from a $100 million settlement. The Walgreens Class Action Settlement 2025 resolves claims that the company overcharged insured customers for generic medications by failing to apply internal discounts.
If you’re eligible, you could receive compensation—but you’ll need to act before the April 17, 2025 deadline. Here’s exactly what you need to know.
Overview
The class action lawsuit alleges Walgreens misled insurers and customers by not including its Prescription Savings Club (PSC) prices when calculating how much to charge. This made insured customers pay more than necessary for generic drugs. Walgreens denies wrongdoing but agreed to settle for $100 million.
This lawsuit, officially known as Russo, et al. v. Walgreen Co., was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. It covers purchases made from January 1, 2007, to November 18, 2024, and if you bought any prescriptions using insurance during that time, you might qualify.
