JUNE 23, 2009: The United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation ordered that all federal lawsuits currently pending against Fleet alleging injuries resulting from the use of Fleet Phospho-soda be consolidated to a single United States District Court. The Panel centralized the cases in the Northern District of Ohio before the Honorable Ann Aldrich. This does not create a class-action, it is simply a pre-trial mechanism designed to encourage efficiency. For more information, please contact us.

Fleet Phospho-soda Lawsuits:
Following more than four years of litigation nationwide and an unequivocal statement from FDA, CB Fleet finally recalled its Phospho-soda® laxative that it has aggressively promoted since the early 1990s as a safe bowel cleanser for colonoscopy and medical procedure preparation.
Since 2004, there have been close to 200 individual lawsuits filed against CB Fleet across the United States. The plaintiffs in these lawsuits allege that they have suffered kidney failure, chronic kidney disease and end stage renal disease as a direct result of using Fleet® Phospho-Soda® in a dose recommended by Fleet as "safe"; sadly many of these plaintiffs are undergoing dialysis while awaiting a kidney transplant.
If you have suffered KIDNEY DISEASE or KIDNEY DAMAGE that developed after taking Fleet® Phospho-soda® as a bowel cleanser in preparation for colonoscopy or surgery, you may be entitled to monetary compensation for your injury.
