Looking for a settlement you can still file?
This one is closed, but our 60-second eligibility quiz finds the ones that are still open.
Who Was Eligible?
Who the settlement covered:
- You are an individual (or third-party payor) who paid any amount for a retail purchase of Chantix in the United States or its territories between September 29, 2015 and September 17, 2021.
- The medication was purchased at retail for personal or covered use — not for resale or distribution.
How Much Did It Pay?
Consumers share in up to 20% of the net settlement fund (after fees, costs, and administration); the remaining ~80% is allocated to third-party payors such as insurers. Your individual payment depends on the number of prescriptions you self-report and the total number of valid claims. There is no fixed per-person maximum — you report your actual out-of-pocket cost.
How this claim was filed
This settlement is closed, so the steps below are kept for reference only — they no longer lead anywhere you can file.
- Confirm eligibility — you paid out of pocket for retail Chantix in the U.S. between Sept 29, 2015 and Sept 17, 2021.
- File by September 14, 2026 — online or postmarked by that date. There is no Notice ID or Claim ID to enter.
- Self-report the number of prescriptions and your out-of-pocket cost. No documentation is required when you file, but the administrator may request proof later, so keep pharmacy records, prescription records, or an explanation of benefits showing you paid for Chantix.
- Filing is free — never pay anyone to submit for you. Class Action Buddy can auto-fill the official form.
