Boston (eCanadaNow) - Airborne has settled a false advertising lawsuit worth over $23 million.  The company has agreed to pay out refunds to any consumers who used the medicine, whether or not they have proof of purchase.

The false advertising claims state that Airborne is nothing more than an expensive medicine.

Consumers, whether they have proof of purchase or not, will be able to get a refund.

They will pay out $23 million to settle the false advertising charges in total.

The Center for Sciences in the Public Interest stated that Airborne was an "overpriced medicine."  They also stated that it was "deceptively marketed."

The creator of Airborne is actually a school teacher, but it has been found that it does not protect against the cold or anything fo that nature anymore than a vitamin.
