H ONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - Hawaii has won more than $900 million in a years-old lawsuit over the blood-thinning drug Plavix, in the largest court award in the state’s history. It’s a victory over two of the country’s largest pharamceutical companies, who could still appeal.

A Hawaii state judge on Tuesday awarded the state more than $900 million after he found two major pharmaceutical companies had employed unfair and deceptive business practices in marketing the blood thinner drug Plavix.
