In the last six months of 2016, the company was sued by 1,000 people who had an allergic reaction to the company's obesity drug. At the end of 2016, the company's attorneys believe there is a 60% chance the company will need to make payments in the range of $1,000 to $5,000 to settle each claim. At the end of 2017, while none of the cases have been resolved, the company's attorneys now believe there is an 80% chance the company will need to make payments in the range of $2,000 to $7,000 to settle each claim. In 2018, 400 claims were settled at a total cost of $1.2 million.
