Wyoming GLP-1 Lawsuit Overview

If you live in Wyoming and were diagnosed with NAION (Non-Arteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy) after taking a GLP-1 drug such as Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, Trulicity, or Rybelsus, you may be eligible to file a claim in the federal GLP-1 NAION MDL (MDL 3163).

All GLP-1 NAION claims — regardless of where the plaintiff lives — are consolidated in MDL 3163 in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania under Judge Karen Marston. You do not need to travel to Pennsylvania to file. Your local attorney can handle your case as part of the MDL.
