Plaintiffs are seeking compensation for both economic and non-economic damages. This includes coverage for past and future medical bills (for managing diabetes, liver disease, etc.), lost wages or reduced earning potential, and compensation for pain, suffering, and emotional distress caused by the chronic health condition

As of late 2025, the litigation is still in its early stages, and there has been no confirmed settlement or jury verdict. Payout projections are speculative, but based on the severity of chronic illnesses like Type 2 diabetes and NAFLD, compensation for individual cases could range from the tens of thousands to several hundred thousand dollars, depending on the extent of the damages
