WA To Get Millions In Record-Setting Drug Settlement



SEATTLE, Wash.  (Metro)  -- Washington is about to get just over $4 million in what state Attorney General Rob McKenna calls a record setting prescription drug settlement. 

McKenna and 36 other attorneys general recently reached the $181 million deal with Janssen Pharmaceuticals. 

They said it improperly marketed four antipsychotic drugs for unapproved uses. 

Janssen is a subsidiary of Johnson and Johnson.
