Maryland residents affected by Differin products may have recourse through the state's Consumer Protection Act, which provides stronger remedies than many other states for deceptive marketing practices related to cosmetics and over-the-counter medications. The Maryland Consumer Protection Division actively monitors skincare product advertising claims and has previously taken action against companies making unsubstantiated acne treatment promises. Galderma Laboratories, which manufactures Differin, distributes its products throughout Maryland via major pharmacy chains including CVS Health, which has significant operations in the state. Maryland residents filing class action claims benefit from the state's liberal venue rules and consumer-friendly statutes of limitations. The Maryland Attorney General's office has historically supported consumer litigation against pharmaceutical companies for misleading marketing. When participating in multi-state settlements, Maryland residents should note that state law may provide additional damages beyond federal class action recoveries, particularly for products marketed to minors without adequate safety warnings.
