Insulin makers face class-action lawsuit over price collusion

Insulin makers face class-action lawsuit over price collusionA class-action lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court of Massachusetts alleges that insulin makers Sanofi (NYSE:SNY), Novo Nordisk (NYSE:NVO) and Eli Lilly (NYSE:LLY) conspired to raise their list prices to get access to pharmacy benefit managers’ preferred lists, instead of competing with each other based on real market prices.
