West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey has announced a settlement has been reached between his office and Kroger for $68 million. The pharmacy chain was the last remaining defendant in an opioid lawsuit, involving Walgreens, Walmart, CVS and Rite Aid. The settlement with Kroger resolves the lawsuit that alleged the pharmacy chain failed to maintain effective controls as a distributor and dispenser against diversion that contributed to the oversupply of opioids in the state.
