A Grandma Bought PediaSure To Help Her Grandson Grow — Now, Abbott Is In Federal Court

A federal judge ruled that Abbott Laboratories must defend against a class-action lawsuit alleging it misled consumers about PediaSure Grow & Gain drinks. The judge found that Abbott's marketing, including packaging with a giraffe and ruler markings, could reasonably be interpreted as promising height growth, despite the company's claims only stating the product helps kids 'grow' without specifying the type of growth.
