MARGO K. BRODIE, United States District Judge
Plaintiff John Trisvan, proceeding pro se , commenced the above-captioned action1 on November 23, 2015 against Defendants Tom Heyman, Alex Gorsky, Joaquin Duato, Sir Phillip Hampton, and Andrew Witty, alleging liability for their role in the manufacturing and marketing of pharmaceutical drugs Risperdal and Wellbutrin. (Compl., Docket Entry No. 1.) Plaintiff alleges that Risperdal and Wellbutrin caused him weight gain, gynecomastia, hypertension, and liver damage. (Id. ) On April 14, 2017, Plaintiff filed an Amended Complaint adding Johnson and Johnson Development Corporation, Janssen Pharmaceuticals, and Glaxosmithkline, LLC as Defendants.2 (Am. Compl., Docket Entry No. 34.)3 While Plaintiff has not alleged that Defendants have violated any specific laws, the Court interprets the Amended Complaint to raise New York state law claims for failure to warn, design defect, and fraud.
*389Defendants now move to dismiss the Amended Complaint for lack of personal jurisdiction, and failure to state a claim pursuant to Rules 12(b)(2) and (6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.4 (GSK Defs. Second Mot. to Dismiss ("GSK Second Mot."), Docket Entry No. 44; GSK Defs. Mem. in Supp. of GSK Second Mot. ("GSK Mem."), Docket Entry No. 44-1; Janssen Defs. Second Mot. to Dismiss ("Janssen Second Mot."), Docket Entry No. 47; Janssen Defs. Mem. in Supp. of Janssen Second Mot. ("Janssen Mem."), Docket Entry No. 48.) For the reasons discussed below, the Court grants Defendants' motions to dismiss in their entirety.
I. Background
The facts alleged in the Amended Complaint are assumed to be true for the purpose of deciding Defendants' motions. Because Plaintiff is proceeding pro se , the Court also considers and assumes the truth of Plaintiff's factual allegations in his opposition to the motions. See, e.g. , Walker v. Schult , 717 F.3d 119, 122 n.1 (2d Cir. 2013) ("A district court deciding a motion to dismiss may consider factual allegations made by a pro se party in his papers opposing the motion."); Small v. Ortlieb , No. 10-CV-1616, 2012 WL 3229298, at *1 (E.D.N.Y. Aug. 6, 2012) ("[A]s part of this [c]ourt's duty to construe pro se pleadings liberally, the [c]ourt will take account of all the facts contained in both [plaintiff's] amended complaint and his opposition papers." (citation omitted) ).
a. Plaintiff's medical history
In 1999, at the age of twenty-three, Plaintiff was diagnosed with depression and psychosis. (Am. Compl. 3.) On or around 2001, Plaintiff was prescribed the medications Risperdal and Wellbutrin by his then-psychiatrist to treat the symptoms of depression and psychosis. (Id. at 4.) Within two years of taking these medications, Plaintiff developed gynecomastia, hypertension, and gained almost 100 pounds of weight. (Id. )
On September 14, 2015, Plaintiff received test results indicating he had an enlarged liver and was in the early stages of fatty liver disease. (Id. ) Plaintiff's medical physician informed him that the medication he was being prescribed by his then-psychiatrist was known to cause liver damage. (Id. ) Plaintiff had never previously been informed of any potential side-effects of taking Risperdal and Wellbutrin. (Id. )
b. Development and marketing of Risperdal and Wellbutrin
In 1994, the Janssen Defendants began manufacturing Risperdal for public use.5 (Id. ) Over the years, the Janssen Defendants *390have agreed to settlements with state governments and the United States Department of Justice ("DOJ") for improper promotion of off-label uses of Risperdal. (Pl. Opp'n to Defs. Mot. ("Pl. Opp'n") 3, 23-33, Docket Entry No. 43.) While Risperdal had only been FDA-approved for the treatment of schizophrenia and "Bipolar I Disorder" in adults, the Janssen Defendants promoted the product for "unapproved uses, including dementia in elderly patients, schizophrenia and bi-polar disorder in children and adolescents, and depression ...." (Id. at 33.) The settlements focused on conduct that took place between January 1, 1999 and December 31, 2005. (Id. at 30.) Individual Janssen Defendants Gorsky, Duato, and Heyman joined the company in 1988, 1989, and 2008, respectively. (Id. at 2-3.)
From January of 1999 to December of 2003, the GSK Defendants promoted Wellbutrin, "approved at that time only for Major Depressive Disorder, for weight loss, the treatment of sexual dysfunction, substance addictions and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, among other off-label uses." (Id. at 11.) To promote these off-label uses, the GSK Defendants, inter alia , "paid millions of dollars to doctors to speak at and attend meetings, ... [and] sham advisory boards." (Id. ) As a result of these and other practices, GSK agreed to a settlement with the DOJ and various state governments because "its labeling did not bear adequate directions for ... off-label uses." (Id. at 12.) Individual GSK Defendants Witty and Hampton both served as executives of the company "during the time Plaintiff was injured." (Am. Compl. 5.)
II. Discussion
a. Standards of Review
i. Rule 12(b)(2)
On a motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction pursuant to Rule 12(b)(2) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, "[a] plaintiff bears the burden of demonstrating personal jurisdiction over a person or entity against whom it seeks to bring suit." Troma Entm't, Inc. v. Centennial Pictures Inc. , 729 F.3d 215, 217 (2d Cir. 2013) (citing Penguin Grp. (USA) Inc. v. Am. Buddha , 609 F.3d 30, 34 (2d Cir. 2010) ); see also Thackurdeen v. Duke Univ. , 660 Fed.Appx. 43, 44-45 (2d Cir. 2016) ("In opposing a motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction, plaintiffs bear the burden of establishing that the court has jurisdiction over defendants." (citations, alterations and internal quotation marks omitted) ). The plaintiff's burden is governed by a "sliding scale," which "varies depending on the procedural posture of the litigation." Dorchester Fin. Sec., Inc. v. Banco BRJ, S.A. , 722 F.3d 81, 84 (2d Cir. 2013) (quoting Ball v. Metallurgie Hoboken-Overpelt, S.A. , 902 F.2d 194, 197 (2d Cir. 1990) ). If a defendant challenges personal jurisdiction by filing a Rule 12(b)(2) motion, "the plaintiff need persuade the court only that its factual allegations constitute a prima facie showing of jurisdiction." Id. at 85 (quoting Ball , 902 F.2d at 197 ); Eades v. Kennedy, PC Law Offices , 799 F.3d 161, 167-68 (2d Cir. 2015) (same). Prior to discovery, a plaintiff need only plead "an averment of facts that, if credited by the trier, would suffice to establish jurisdiction over the defendant." Dorchester , 722 F.3d at 84 (quoting Ball , 902 F.2d at 197 ); Chirag v. MT Marida Marguerite Schiffahrts , 604 Fed.Appx. 16, 19 (2d Cir. 2015) ("A prima facie case requires non-conclusory fact-specific allegations or evidence showing that activity that constitutes the basis of jurisdiction has taken place." (citing Jazini v. Nissan Motor Co. , 148 F.3d 181, 185 (2d Cir. 1998) ) ). After discovery, the plaintiff's prima facie showing must be factually supported. Dorchester Fin. Sec. , 722 F.3d at 85 (quoting Ball , 902 F.2d at 197 ).
*391The court must "construe the pleadings and any supporting materials in the light most favorable to the plaintiffs." Licci ex rel. Licci v. Lebanese Canadian Bank, SAL , 732 F.3d 161, 167 (2d Cir. 2013) (citing Chloé v. Queen Bee of Beverly Hills, LLC , 616 F.3d 158, 163 (2d Cir. 2010) ); Grundstein v. Eide , 598 Fed.Appx. 45, 46 (2d Cir. 2015) (citing DiStefano v. Carozzi N. Am., Inc. , 286 F.3d 81, 84 (2d Cir. 2001) ). However, the court need not "accept as true a legal conclusion couched as a factual allegation." In re Terrorist Attacks on Sept. 11, 2001 , 714 F.3d 659, 673 (2d Cir. 2013), cert. denied sub nom. O'Neill v. Al Rajhi Bank , --- U.S. ----, 134 S.Ct. 2870, 189 L.Ed.2d 848 (2014) (quoting Jazini , 148 F.3d at 185 ). In resolving a motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction pursuant to Rule 12(b)(2), a district court may consider materials outside the pleadings. Dorchester Fin. Sec. , 722 F.3d at 86 (citing S. New Eng. Tel. Co. v. Global NAPs Inc. , 624 F.3d 123, 138 (2d Cir. 2010) ); Pinto-Thomaz v. Cusi , No. 15-CV-1993, 2015 WL 7571833, at *3 (S.D.N.Y. Nov. 24, 2015) (citing DiStefano , 286 F.3d at 84 ).
In a case based on diversity jurisdiction, personal jurisdiction is determined by the law of the state in which the court sits. Ash v. Richards , 572 Fed.Appx. 52, 53 (2d Cir. 2014) (citing Whitaker v. Am. Telecasting, Inc. , 261 F.3d 196, 208 (2d Cir. 2001) ). The court must first look to the state's long-arm statute. Whitaker , 261 F.3d at 208. If the court can exercise jurisdiction pursuant to the long-arm statute, the court must subsequently determine whether the exercise of personal jurisdiction over the defendant would comport with the Due Process Clause of the United States Constitution. Best Van Lines, Inc. v. Walker , 490 F.3d 239, 242 (2d Cir. 2007) ("If, but only if, our answer is in the affirmative, we must then determine whether asserting jurisdiction under that provision would be compatible with requirements of due process established under the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution." (citing Int'l Shoe Co. v. Washington , 326 U.S. 310, 315, 66 S.Ct. 154, 90 L.Ed. 95 (1945) ) ).
ii. Rule 12(b)(6)
In reviewing a motion to dismiss under Rule 12(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, a court must construe the complaint liberally, "accepting all factual allegations in the complaint as true and drawing all reasonable inferences in the plaintiff's favor." Kim v. Kimm , 884 F.3d 98, 103 (2d Cir. 2018) (quoting Chambers v. Time Warner Inc. , 282 F.3d 147, 152 (2d Cir. 2002) ); see also Tsirelman v. Daines , 794 F.3d 310, 313 (2d Cir. 2015) (quoting Jaghory v. N.Y. State Dep't of Educ. , 131 F.3d 326, 329 (2d Cir. 1997) ). A complaint must plead "enough facts to state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face." Bell Atl. Corp. v. Twombly , 550 U.S. 544, 570, 127 S.Ct. 1955, 167 L.Ed.2d 929 (2007). A claim is plausible "when the plaintiff pleads factual content that allows the court to draw the reasonable inference that the defendant is liable for the misconduct alleged." Matson v. Bd. of Educ. , 631 F.3d 57, 63 (2d Cir. 2011) (quoting Ashcroft v. Iqbal , 556 U.S. 662, 678, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009) ). Although all allegations contained in the complaint are assumed to be true, this tenet is "inapplicable to legal conclusions." Iqbal , 556 U.S. at 678, 129 S.Ct. 1937. In reviewing a pro se complaint, the court must be mindful that a plaintiff's pleadings should be held "to less stringent standards than formal pleadings drafted by lawyers." Erickson v. Pardus , 551 U.S. 89, 94, 127 S.Ct. 2197, 167 L.Ed.2d 1081 (2007) (per curiam) (quoting Estelle v. Gamble , 429 U.S. 97, 104-05, 97 S.Ct. 285, 50 L.Ed.2d 251 (1976) ); see Harris v. Mills , 572 F.3d 66, 72 (2d Cir. 2009) (noting that even after *392Twombly , the court "remain[s] obligated to construe a pro se complaint liberally").
iii. Rule 9(b)
"Rule 9(b) requires that '[i]n alleging fraud or mistake, a party must state with particularity the circumstances constituting fraud or mistake.' "6 United States ex rel. Ladas v. Exelis, Inc. , 824 F.3d 16, 25 (2d Cir. 2016) (alteration in original) (quoting Fed. R. Civ. P. 9(b) ). "To satisfy this Rule, a complaint alleging fraud must '(1) specify the statements that the plaintiff contends were fraudulent, (2) identify the speaker, (3) state where and when the statements were made, and (4) explain why the statements were fraudulent.' " Id. (quoting Shields v. Citytrust Bancorp, Inc. , 25 F.3d 1124, 1128 (2d Cir. 1994) ). Ultimately, whether a complaint satisfies Rule 9(b)"depends 'upon the nature of the case, the complexity or simplicity of the transaction or occurrence, the relationship of the parties and the determination of how much circumstantial detail is necessary to give notice to the adverse party and enable him to prepare a responsive pleading.' " United States v. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. , 972 F.Supp.2d 593, 616 (S.D.N.Y. 2013) (citation omitted); see United States ex rel. Wood v. Allergan, Inc. , 246 F.Supp.3d 772, 787 (S.D.N.Y. 2017) (quoting same); Kane ex rel. U.S. v. Healthfirst, Inc. , 120 F.Supp.3d 370, 383 (S.D.N.Y. 2015) (quoting same); U.S. ex rel. Bilotta v. Novartis Pharm. Corp. , 50 F.Supp.3d 497, 508 (S.D.N.Y. 2014) (quoting same); see also Rombach v. Chang , 355 F.3d 164, 171 (2d Cir. 2004) (discussing the purpose of the particularity requirement and emphasizing fair notice to the defendant).
b. The Court lacks personal jurisdiction over Defendants Hampton and Witty
GSK Defendants argue the Court lacks personal jurisdiction over Defendants Hampton and Witty because they are "residents of the United Kingdom with no substantial contacts with the State of New York" and "did not manufacture or distribute any medications, including Wellbutrin, in their individual capacities, or have any involvement in Plaintiff's alleged use of the drug." (GSK Mem. 4-6.) In addition, GSK Defendants contend that Hampton and Witty worked for GSK plc, "a separate and distinct legal entity from GSK LLC, the manufacturer and distributor of Wellbutrin." (Id. at 4-5.) Plaintiff argues the Court has personal jurisdiction over Hampton and Witty through the application of the "effects doctrine," based on their alleged roles "oversee[ing] the manufacturing as well as distribution of [Wellbutrin ]." (Am. Compl. 5.) Plaintiff also asserts that Hampton and Witty "maintain joint control and hold a majority of [GSK plc's] shares and proceeds from the corporation." (Id. )
"There are two types of personal jurisdiction: specific and general." Sonera Holding B.V. v. Çukurova Holding A.S. , 750 F.3d 221, 225 (2d Cir. 2014), cert. denied , --- U.S. ----, 134 S.Ct. 2888, 189 L.Ed.2d 837 (2014). General jurisdiction permits a court to exercise personal jurisdiction over a defendant regardless of whether the underlying claim has a connection to the forum. Id. ("A court with general jurisdiction over a corporation may adjudicate all claims against that corporation-even those entirely unrelated to the defendant's contacts with the state."). Specific jurisdiction requires a connection between the forum exercising jurisdiction *393over the defendant and the underlying controversy that gave rise to the claim. Id. ("Specific or conduct-linked jurisdiction ... 'depends on an affiliation between the forum and the underlying controversy, principally, activity or an occurrence that takes place in the forum state and is therefore subject to the State's regulation.' ") (alteration omitted) (quoting Goodyear Dunlop Tires Operations, S.A. v. Brown , 564 U.S. 915, 919, 131 S.Ct. 2846, 180 L.Ed.2d 796 (2011) ). Under New York law, courts exercise specific jurisdiction pursuant to New York Civil Practice Law and Rules ("CPLR") section 302 and general jurisdiction pursuant to CPLR section 301.
" Section 302(a)... confers [specific] jurisdiction over individual corporate officers who supervise and control an infringing activity." Chloe v. Queen Bee of Beverly Hills, LLC , 616 F.3d 158, 164 (2d Cir. 2010) ; Belabbas v. Inova Software Inc. , No. 16-CV-7379, 2017 WL 3669512, at *3 (S.D.N.Y. Aug. 24, 2017) ("New York law does not distinguish actions taken in a defendant's personal capacity from actions taken in his 'corporate' capacity." (citing Chloe , 616 F.3d at 164 ) ). A plaintiff "must show that the officer is a 'primary actor[ ] in the transaction in New York' and not merely 'some corporate employee ... who played no part' in the allegedly tortious act."7 Giuliano v. Barch , No. 16-CV-0859, 2017 WL 1234042, at *12 (S.D.N.Y. Mar. 31, 2017) (quoting Retail Software Servs., Inc. v. Lashlee , 854 F.2d 18, 22 (2d Cir. 1988) ). To be subject to jurisdiction, the officer must have "exercised some control over the purposeful activity" directed in or to the state. Jonas v. Estate of Leven , 116 F.Supp.3d 314, 328 (S.D.N.Y. 2015) ; see also Charles Schwab Corp. v. Bank of Am. Corp. , 883 F.3d 68, 85 (2d Cir. 2018) (citing Retail Software , 854 F.2d at 22 for proposition that "New York law and due process [was] satisfied [for specific jurisdiction] where corporate officers allegedly benefitted from [corporation's in-forum] activities and exercised extensive control over [corporation] in the transaction underlying th[e] suit") ).
"To make a prima facie showing of control, a plaintiff's allegations must sufficiently detail the defendant's conduct so as to persuade a court that the defendant was a primary actor in the specific matter in question." Jonas v. Estate of Leven , 116 F.Supp.3d 314, 328 (S.D.N.Y. 2015) (quoting ADP Inv'r Commc'n Servs. v. In House Attorney Servs., Inc. , 390 F.Supp.2d 212, 219 (E.D.N.Y. 2005) ). "[C]ontrol cannot be shown based merely upon a defendant's title or position within the corporation, or upon conclusory allegations that the defendant controls the corporation." Id. In evaluating control, courts often examine whether the officer had any direct involvement, knowledge, or consented to the transactions at issue. See Vista Food Exch., Inc. v. Champion Foodservice, LLC. , No. 14-CV-804, 2014 WL 3857053, at *7 (S.D.N.Y. Aug. 5, 2014) (finding that courts have imputed personal jurisdiction to individual defendants where the officers had "negotiated or ... signed ... or were parties to the agreements"); New York v. Mountain Tobacco Co. , No. 12-CV-6276, 2015 WL 893625, at *3 (E.D.N.Y. Feb. 26, 2015) ("Being a primary actor in the transaction[s] at issue requires that the officer have knowledge and consent to the transaction carried out by the agent-corporation and that the officer have exercised control over the corporation in the transaction." (citations omitted) );
*394Nelson A. Taylor Co., Inc. v. Technology Dynamics Group Inc. , No. 95-CV-0431, 1997 WL 176325, at *5 (N.D.N.Y. Apr. 7, 1997) (personal jurisdiction imputed when defendants were alleged to have negotiated and signed the agreements in dispute, personally controlled all transactions, and authored virtually all correspondence); Sterling Interiors Group, Inc. v. Haworth , No. 94-CV-9216, 1996 WL 426379, at *15 (S.D.N.Y. July 30, 1996) (finding that participation in a scheme and the belief that individual, non-shareholding defendants were "believed to be or to have been fully aware of ... condoned and directed the perpetuation of the scheme" were insufficient to establish personal jurisdiction). In certain cases, extensive control over the day to day operations of a corporation may also be sufficient. See EMI Christian Music Grp., Inc. v. MP3tunes, LLC , 844 F.3d 79, 98 (2d Cir. 2016) (affirming district court's imputation of contracts of corporation to corporate defendant who had "extensive control over ... day-to-day activities" and controlled all "final decisions").
The Court interprets the parties' dispute to be over the application of specific jurisdiction. Both parties agree that Hampton and Witty are domiciled in the United Kingdom, and have not transacted any business in New York as individuals. General jurisdiction, therefore, is improper. See Reich v. Lopez , 858 F.3d 55, 63 (2d Cir. 2017) ("General jurisdiction over an individual comports with due process in the forum where he is 'at home,' meaning the place of 'domicile.' " (citation omitted) ); Pinto-Thomaz v. Cusi , No. 15-CV-1993, 2015 WL 7571833, at *5 (S.D.N.Y. Nov. 24, 2015) ("New York courts have concluded that CPLR 301 applies to persons acting only in their individual capacities, and that their activities on behalf of an employer or corporation will not support the exercise of personal jurisdiction." (citations omitted) ). Moreover, the effects doctrine confers at most specific jurisdiction over defendants. See Waldman v. Palestine Liberation Org. , 835 F.3d 317, 337 (2d Cir. 2016) (applying the "effects test" to determine whether the court had specific jurisdiction over the defendants); see also Charles Schwab , 883 F.3d at 87 (explaining the "effects test" is used to determine whether specific jurisdiction exists "where 'the conduct that forms the basis for the controversy occurs entirely out-of-forum, and the only relevant jurisdictional contacts with the forum are therefore in-forum effects harmful to the plaintiff' " (citations omitted) ).8
Plaintiff fails to sufficiently allege control by Hampton and Witty over the sale or promotion of Wellbutrin to allow for the exercise of personal jurisdiction over them. Neither the Amended Complaint nor the *395opposition submission provide any non-conclusory allegations of personal involvement by Hampton or Witty. Instead, Plaintiff appears to assume their involvement on the basis of their positions as Chairman and CEO of GSK plc,9 the principal of GSK LLC,10 the makers and manufacturers of Wellbutrin. (See Am. Compl. 5 ("Hampton and ... Witty are respectively, the Chairman and CEO, who both oversee the manufacturing as well as distribution of the drugs being made and sold by the corporation's subsidiaries."); id. ("Hampton ... and Witty during the time Plaintiff was injured was presently the Chairman and CEO of GlaxoSmithKline PLC ...."); Pl. Opp'n 2 ("Witty and Hampton were respectively the CEO and Chairman of GlaxoSmithKline ....").) Further, the only reference to either Defendant in the articles covering GSK's settlements attached to the opposition submission is Witty's apology on behalf of the corporation. These allegations are insufficient to impute any corporate misfeasance to Hampton and Witty for purposes of personal jurisdiction. Accordingly, Defendants Hampton and Witty are dismissed from this action with prejudice.
c. Statute of limitations
Defendants argue that Plaintiffs' claims based on weight gain, hypertension, and gynecomastia are untimely.11 (GSK Mem. 6-7; Janssen Mem. 9-11.) Plaintiff offers no response.
In diversity actions, "a federal court sitting in New York must apply the New York choice-of-law rules and statutes of limitations." Stuart v. Am. Cyanamid Co. , 158 F.3d 622, 626 (2d Cir. 1998) ; see also 2002 Lawrence R. Buchalter Alaska Tr. v. Philadelphia Fin. Life Assurance Co. , No. 717 Fed.Appx. 35, 37 & n.1, 2017 WL 6540498, at *2 & n.1 (2d Cir. Dec. 21, 2017) ("Federal courts sitting in diversity jurisdiction apply the procedural statute of limitations and choice-of-law rules of the forum state." (citing Stuart , 158 F.3d at 627 ) ). "Because a statute of limitations is an affirmative defense, [a defendant] bears the burden of proof to show ... the claims [are barred]." New York State Elec. & Gas Corp. v. FirstEnergy Corp. , 766 F.3d 212, 230 (2d Cir. 2014) (citations omitted). Once a defendant is able to make out a prima facie case that the claims are untimely, "[t]he burden then shifts to the plaintiff to establish that the limitations period should *396be tolled." Overall v. Estate of Klotz , 52 F.3d 398, 403 (2d Cir. 1995) (citations omitted).
i. Personal injury
Under New York law, "an action to recover damages for a personal injury" is subject to a three-year statute of limitations. CPLR § 214(5). The statute of limitations for personal injuries caused by latent effects of any substance accrue "from the date of discovery of the injury ... or from the date when ... such injury should have been discovered." Bethpage Water Dist. v. Northrop Grumman Corp. , 884 F.3d 118, 125 (2d Cir. 2018) (citing § 214-c(2) ) (emphasis omitted). "[D]iscovery occurs when ... 'the injured party discovers the primary condition on which the claim is based.' " Id. (quoting MRI Broadway Rental, Inc. v. U.S. Min. Prods. Co. , 92 N.Y.2d 421, 429, 681 N.Y.S.2d 783, 704 N.E.2d 550 (1998) ); Matter of New York Cty. DES Litig. , 89 N.Y.2d 506, 509, 655 N.Y.S.2d 862, 678 N.E.2d 474 (1997) (holding that " CPLR § 214-c(2)'s reference to 'discovery of the injury' was intended to mean discovery of the condition on which the claim was based and nothing more"). "The fact that there may be a delay before 'the connection between th[e] symptoms and the injured's exposure to a toxic substance is recognized' does not delay the start of the limitations period." Bano v. Union Carbide Corp. , 361 F.3d 696, 709 (2d Cir. 2004) ; Martin v. 159 W. 80 St. Corp. , 3 A.D.3d 439, 770 N.Y.S.2d 720, 722 (2004) ("The three-year statute of limitations of CPLR 214-c(2) runs from the time a plaintiff discovers an injury, that is, from the time she realizes that she has the physical manifestations of illness, regardless of when she learns of the cause.").
CPLR § 214-c(4) provides a narrow exception to the three-year statute of limitations. That provision applies "where 'technical, scientific or medical knowledge and information sufficient to ascertain the cause of his injury had not been discovered, identified or determined prior to the expiration of the period within which the action or claim would have been authorized.' " Bano , 361 F.3d at 707 (quoting CPLR § 214-c(4) ). "In such circumstances, 'where the discovery of the cause of the injury is alleged to have occurred less than five years after discovery of the injury ... an action may be commenced or a claim filed within one year of such discovery of the cause of the injury.' " Id. ; Bethpage , 884 F.3d at 130 ("[I ]f a plaintiff discovers an injury and discovers within the next five years the cause of that injury, the statute of limitations is extended to one year after the discovery of the cause.").
Plaintiff's failure to warn and design defect claims based on his weight gain, hypertension, and gynecomastia are time-barred. See Fisher v. APP Pharm., LLC , 783 F.Supp.2d 424, 429 (S.D.N.Y. 2011) (holding failure to warn and design defect claims to be subject to three-year statute of limitations period); Fathi v. Pfizer Inc. , 24 Misc.3d 1249(A), 901 N.Y.S.2d 899 (Sup. Ct. 2009) (holding product liability causes of action (failure to warn and design defect) were subject to the three-year statute of limitations under CPLR § 214-c(2) ). In the Amended Complaint, Plaintiff acknowledges he had "gained close to 100lbs,[ ] had developed a case of gynecomastia, and ... beg[an] suffering from hypertension... by usage of [Risperdal and Wellbutrin ]" two years after being prescribed the medications in 2001. (Am. Compl. 4.) Plaintiff commenced this action on November 23, 2015, well beyond the three-year statute of limitations in CPLR § 214-c(2). These claims would be time-barred even if the exception in CPLR § 214-c(4) applied. Had the exception applied, Plaintiff would have had to bring his claim by 2007 at the latest. See *397Styles v. Goord , 367 F.Supp.2d 473, 474 (W.D.N.Y. 2005) (explaining CPLR § 214-c(4)"allows a plaintiff to bring a claim up to six years after discovering his injury" under the specified circumstances), aff'd , 198 Fed.Appx. 36 (2d Cir. 2006) ). Accordingly, the Court dismisses these claims with prejudice.
ii. Fraud
"In New York, the limitations period for a fraud claim is 'the greater of six years from the date the cause of action accrued or two years from the time the plaintiff ... discovered the fraud, or could with reasonable diligence have discovered it.' " Sejin Precision Indus. Co. v. Citibank, N.A. , 726 Fed.Appx. 27, 30, 2018 WL 1151784, at *2 (2d Cir. Mar. 5, 2018) (quoting CPLR § 213(8) ). A plaintiff, however, may not "tak[e] advantage of the longer limitations period" "[w]hen a fraud claim is incidental to another asserted claim." ITT Corp. v. Lee , 663 Fed.Appx. 80, 85 (2d Cir. 2016) (quoting Corcoran v. New York Power Auth. , 202 F.3d 530, 545 (2d Cir. 1999) ). "Otherwise, 'fraud would be used as a means to litigate stale claims.' " Twersky v. Yeshiva Univ. , 993 F.Supp.2d 429, 450 (S.D.N.Y. 2014) (citation omitted), aff'd , 579 Fed.Appx. 7 (2d Cir. 2014). "A fraud action is not incidental to another claim 'only when: (1) the fraud occurred separately from and subsequent to the injury forming the basis of the alternate claim; and (2) the injuries caused by the fraud are distinct from the injuries caused by the alternate claim.' " ITT Corp , 663 Fed.Appx. at 85 (citations omitted). "Under the second prong, injuries must be truly distinct-exacerbation of the original injury due to an alleged fraud does not constitute a separate injury." Twersky , 993 F.Supp.2d at 450 (citing Corcoran , 202 F.3d at 545 ).
Plaintiff's fraud claims are incidental to his personal injury claims. The only meaningful difference between the fraud and other claims is the element of scienter -knowledge of material misrepresentation or omission of fact and intent to defraud. See New York Seven-Up Bottling Co. v. Dow Chem. Co. , 96 A.D.2d 1051, 466 N.Y.S.2d 478, 480 (1983) (holding fraud claim to be incidental to manufacturing defect claim based on representations made during marketing of product), aff'd , 61 N.Y.2d 828, 473 N.Y.S.2d 973, 462 N.E.2d 150 (1984). Otherwise, the claims are identical in both their "genesis" and effect. Plaintiff's claims and injuries are all based on the same alleged failures to warn about the dangers of the medications or to create less dangerous products. See id. (dismissing fraud cause of action as time-barred where the "genesis of [the] claim [wa]s that [plaintiff] was injured by a defective product"). Plaintiff may not "invoke the longer period of limitations" "by adding an allegation of scienter." Id. ; see also Fisher , 783 F.Supp.2d at 429 (finding fraudulent concealment claim to be subject to same three-year statute of limitations as the product liability claims); Grill v. Philip Morris USA, Inc. , 653 F.Supp.2d 481, 488 (S.D.N.Y. 2009) (finding fraudulent concealment claim to be subject to the same three-year statute of limitations as failure to warn claim); Prohaska v. Sofamor, S.N.C. , 138 F.Supp.2d 422, 434 (W.D.N.Y. 2001) (finding fraudulent misrepresentation claim to be subject to same three-year statute of limitations as personal injury claims); Larkins v. Glaxo Wellcome, Inc. , No. 98-CV-4960, 1999 WL 360204, at *10 (E.D.N.Y. May 20, 1999) (finding fraud claim to be subject to the same three-year statute of limitations as failure to warn claim); Fathi , 901 N.Y.S.2d 899 (finding fraud claim to be subject to the same three-year statute of limitations period as the product liability claims (failure to warn and design defect) ); In re Avandia Mktg., Sales Practices & Prod. Liab. Litig. , No. 07-MD-1871, 2015 WL 1728127, at *4 (E.D. Pa. Apr. 10, 2015) (finding fraud claim to be subject to same three-year statute of *398limitations as products liability claims, particularly the failure to warn claim). Accordingly, the fraud claim based on the injuries stemming from 2003 are also time-barred.12
d. Failure to warn
Defendants argue that Plaintiff's failure to warn claim is inadequate for three reasons: (1) the application of the "learned intermediary doctrine," (GSK Mem. 10; Janssen Mem. 11); (2) Plaintiff's failure to sufficiently plead allegations demonstrating how the warning labels were inadequate, (GSK Mem. 12; Janssen Mem. 12); and (3) the long-history of disclosure of the complained about side-effects, (GSK Mem. 12; Janssen Mem. 13).13 Plaintiff contends that Defendants failed to warn him of the "hidden product dangers" and "intentionally hid from the public the harm that these drugs caused." (See Am. Compl 5-6.) Specifically, Plaintiff alleges the medications failed to warn of "liver damage, cirrhosis, or fatty liver disease." (Id. at 6.) Construed liberally, Plaintiff also appears to allege that Defendants "misled medical professionals" about the safety and efficiency of Risperdal and Wellbutrin, in particular with respect to off-label use. (Am. Compl. 5; Pl. Opp'n 3-5, 10-33.)
"Under New York law, a pharmaceutical manufacturer has a duty 'to warn of all potential dangers in its prescription drugs that it knew, or, in the exercise of reasonable care, should have known to exist.' " DiBartolo v. Abbott Labs. , 914 F.Supp.2d 601, 611 (S.D.N.Y. 2012) (quoting Martin v. Hacker , 83 N.Y.2d 1, 8, 607 N.Y.S.2d 598, 628 N.E.2d 1308 (1993) ); see also In re New York City Asbestos Litig. , 27 N.Y.3d 765, 787, 37 N.Y.S.3d 723, 59 N.E.3d 458 (2016) ("[F]ailure-to-warn claims grounded in strict liability and negligence are functionally equivalent." (citations omitted) ). The *399manufacturer's duty to warn "is fulfilled by giving adequate warning through the prescribing physician, not directly to the patient." Abrams v. Bute , 138 A.D.3d 179, 27 N.Y.S.3d 58, 65 (2016) (citations omitted); Dibartolo , 914 F.Supp.2d at 611 ("The New York Court of Appeals has adopted the Informed Intermediary Doctrine ..., also known as the 'Learned Intermediary Doctrine,' which provides that a drug manufacturer's duty is to warn the treating physician, not the patient."). Pursuant to the "Learned Intermediary Doctrine," "a manufacturer's duty is to warn only of those dangers it knows of or are reasonably foreseeable." Davids v. Novartis Pharm. Corp. , 857 F.Supp.2d 267, 286 (E.D.N.Y. 2012) ( Mulhall v. Hannafin , 45 A.D.3d 55, 841 N.Y.S.2d 282, 285 (2007) ).
To state a prima facie claim for failure to warn, "[a] plaintiff must demonstrate [1] that the warning was inadequate and [2] that the failure to adequately warn of the dangers of the drug was a proximate cause of his or her injuries." DiBartolo , 914 F.Supp.2d at 611-12 (quoting Glucksman v. Halsey Drug Co. , 160 A.D.2d 305, 553 N.Y.S.2d 724, 726 (1990) ); see also Lindsay v. Ortho Pharm. Corp. , 637 F.2d 87, 92 (2d Cir. 1980) ("The failure to give adequate warnings is the 'defect' in the product ... The full burden of proving that such a defect existed and that this was a proximate cause of ... injury remain[s] at all times on the plaintiffs.").
i. Failure to warn about side-effects in general
"A warning is adequate as a matter of law 'if it provides specific detailed information on the risks of the drug.' " McDowell v. Eli Lilly & Co. , 58 F.Supp.3d 391, 403 (S.D.N.Y. 2014) (quoting Martin , 607 N.Y.S.2d at 602, 628 N.E.2d 1308 ). "In making this determination, the [c]ourt should consider factors including 'whether the warning is accurate, clear, consistent on its face, and whether it portrays with sufficient intensity the risk involved in taking the drug.' " Id. at 403 (citation omitted). "A warning is accurate if it is 'correct, fully descriptive and complete, and ... convey[s] updated information as to all of the drug's known side effects." Dibartolo , 914 F.Supp.2d at 612. "A warning is clear if it employs language that is 'direct, unequivocal and sufficiently forceful to convey the risk.' " Id. "The warning should also be evaluated as a whole and not through the nitpicking prism of an interested legal advocate after the fact." McDowell , 58 F.Supp.3d at 403.
Plaintiff fails to provide any non-conclusory allegations to suggest that his treating physicians were not informed of the potential side-effects of Risperdral and Wellbutrin of which he complains. (See generally Am. Compl.; Pl. Opp'n.) Instead, Plaintiff's chief complaint is that he was never informed about the risks by his treating physicians. (See Am. Compl. 4 ("At no time was [P]laintiff informed by mental health staff that there would be adverse effects behind consumption of these drugs."); id. ("Although Plaintiff received paperwork each time he received his medications from the nearby pharmacy ... there was nothing on [the] paperwork indicating to him that both medications prescribed to him caused damage to his liver ....").) Plaintiff fails to allege any facts to suggest that his psychiatrists Flo Kaufman, Ray Rebortira, or any other treating physicians were not informed of the risks associated with Risperdal and Wellbutrin.
The Court also finds it significant that Plaintiff's claims appear to be based on his belief that there were no warnings about the relevant side-effects. (See Am. Compl. 4-6 (describing how plaintiff "[a]t no time" was informed about any side-effects and how "there was nothing on [his] paperwork" indicative of any *400side-effects and how Defendants allegedly concealed all information about harms caused by the medications); Pl. Opp'n 4 ("Although Defendants state that ... [the] labeling had expressly warned of such risks since its inception, claims of this sort if true, would have prevented these Defendants from pleading guilty ....").) In contrast to most other failure to warn cases, the adequacy of the warning in this action turns on its mere existence. See DiBartolo , 914 F.Supp.2d at 613 (explaining under more typical cases, courts "consider not merely the existence of a relevant warning, but also the qualitative adequacy of that warning"). Defendants, however, have offered FDA-approved labels as evidence of warnings provided to physicians contemporaneous with or predating Plaintiff's use of Risperdal and Wellbutrin. See Becker v. Cephalon, Inc. , No. 14-CV-3864, 2015 WL 5472311, at *3 (S.D.N.Y. Sept. 15, 2015) (taking judicial notice of FDA-approved labels in assessing failure to warn claim "because the labels 'can be accurately and readily determined from sources whose accuracy cannot reasonably be questioned.' "); Landow v. Wachovia Secs., LLC , 966 F.Supp.2d 106, 119 (E.D.N.Y. 2013) ("[I]t is proper to take judicial notice of the fact that press coverage, prior lawsuits, or regulatory filings contained certain information, without regard to the truth of their contents."). At the very least, these FDA labels list weight gain, gynecomastia, hypertension, and liver damage as observed side-effects of Risperdal and Wellbutrin. The GSK Defendants have also provided a copy of the 2001 Physician's Desk Reference ("PDR") which includes the same warnings.14 (2001 PDR (listing potential for hepatoxicity (chemically driven liver damage), weight gain, hypertension, gynecomastia ), annexed to GSK Second Mot. as Ex. 15, Docket Entry No. 44-2);15 see also Coleman v. State Supreme Court , 697 F.Supp.2d 493, 514 (S.D.N.Y. 2010) ("In assessing the adequacy of the warnings given, [courts] can take judicial notice of the description of pharmaceutical drugs in the [PDR]."); Baker v. St. Agnes Hosp. , 70 A.D.2d 400, 421 N.Y.S.2d 81, 83 (1979) (finding publication in PDR to be a "well-known method[ ] by which pharmaceutical manufacturers apprise the medical profession of the dangers of a drug"). Accordingly, Plaintiff's failure to warn claims based on a lack of any warnings are dismissed with prejudice as to the GSK Defendants. See Becker , 2015 WL 5472311, at *5 ("While a court must generally accept a plaintiff's factual allegations as true in evaluating a motion to dismiss, it 'need not accept as true allegations in a complaint that contradict or are inconsistent with judicially-noticed facts.' "). The same claim is dismissed without prejudice as to the Janssen Defendants because the Court cannot determine whether the warnings about Risperdal were available to physicians in any format other than through the FDA website.16 See Drugs@FDA Instructions: *401Health Information, available at https://www.fda.gov/Drugs/InformationOnDrugs/ucm079450.htm ("The FDA approved label is the official description of a drug product ... Labels are often found inside drug product packaging." (emphasis added) ); see also Baker , 421 N.Y.S.2d at 86 (declining to hold as a matter of law that manufacturer's decision to limit its warnings to "package inserts" to be sufficient for serious side-effects); Lindsay , 637 F.2d at 92 ("[W]arnings can be conveyed by means other than the drug package inserts, around which so much of the controversy at trial centered. They can be given by ... representatives of ... manufacturers, ... [PDR], ... product cards distributed to doctors and available at medical conventions and hospital exhibits, and ... "Dear Doctor" letters ....").17 In *402amending this claim as to the Janssen Defendants, Plaintiff must provide non-conclusory allegations as to why he believes Defendants failed to provide warnings to his physicians.
ii. Failure to warn about enhanced side-effects from foreseeable off-label use
Under New York law, "[a] manufacturer ... has a duty to warn of the danger of unintended uses of a product provided these uses are reasonably foreseeable." Kosmynka v. Polaris Indus., Inc. , 462 F.3d 74, 80 (2d Cir. 2006). This duty extends to off-label use of prescription medication. See Bee v. Novartis Pharm. Corp. , 18 F.Supp.3d 268, 287 (E.D.N.Y. 2014) ("[A] patient prescribed an off-label use of a drug may be a reasonably foreseeable user of the product, such that a manufacturer has a duty to warn of all known adverse effects associated with such use.").
Construed liberally, Plaintiff may be arguing that Defendants failed to provide any warnings about the potential increased risk of off-label use. See Knipe v. SmithKline Beecham , 583 F.Supp.2d 602, 629 (E.D. Pa. 2008) (holding manufacturer had a duty to warn about the "increased risk of [side-effects] associated with [off-label use]"). In his opposition submission, Plaintiff incorporates articles explaining Defendants' prior misconduct in promoting certain types of off-label usage, including failures to warn of side-effects specific to such use. (Pl. Opp'n 10-33.) As to Risperdal, Plaintiff states that the Janssen Defendants "misled officials about the risks ... and marketed the drug for unapproved uses." (Id. at 3.) Plaintiff's claims based on this argument cannot be summarily dismissed by the mere existence of FDA-approved labels or PDR listing the complained of side-effects. Instead, the available warnings must be "accurate, clear, [and] consistent" as to the potential risks associated with foreseeable off-label use. McDowell , 58 F.Supp.3d at 403. Otherwise, even physicians cannot be said to have been adequately informed of the risks associated with such off-label use.
Nevertheless, Plaintiff fails to allege sufficient detail to withstand a motion to dismiss even under this interpretation. As a threshold matter, Plaintiff fails to explain whether he was prescribed Risperdal and Wellbutrin for off-label use, and cannot make such allegations as to Wellbutrin. In the Amended Complaint, Plaintiff alleged that his doctors prescribed him Wellbutrin and Risperdal for depression and psychosis. (Am. Compl. 3-4.) Wellbutrin is a FDA-approved antidepressant for adults. (See Pl. Opp'n 11, 17.) Plaintiff cannot complain of the risks associated with off-label use of Wellbutrin when he was prescribed the medication for on-label use. See In re Risperdal® Litig: P.D. v. Janssen Pharms., Inc. , 2017 WL 3496520, *5, 2017 Phila. Ct. Com. Pl. LEXIS 231, *13 (July 26, 2013) (finding "any discussion of 'off-label' promotion ... irrelevant" because the "prescription was for an indicated usage within an indicated population"). Whether Plaintiff was prescribed Risperdal for on-label use is less clear. As late as 1999, on-label use for Risperdal included the "management of the manifestation of psychotic disorders." (See 1999 FDA Risperdal Label 4, annexed to Thomas P. Kurland Decl. in Supp. of Janssen Second Mot., Docket Entry No. 49, as Ex. F, Docket Entry No. 49-6.) In 2000, the FDA requested that the Risperdal label be *403changed "to more clearly state that [the drug] is indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia."18 See FDA Letter Dated March 3, 2002 (noting requested changes discussed in the September 25, 2000 letter), available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/appletter/2002/20272s8ltr.pdf; (see also Pl. Opp'n 24 ("For most of t[he] time period [between March 3, 2002 and December 31, 2003], Risperdal was approved only to treat schizophrenia.").) This potential discrepancy in the on-label use of Risperdal has not been addressed by the Janssen Defendants.19 The Janssen Defendants also provide no authority that a diagnosis of "psychosis," either as a symptom or disorder necessarily means a person is suffering from schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. Indeed, the FDA's request in 2000 suggests the opposite. Based on these allegations, the Court cannot determine whether Plaintiff's use of Risperdal was on- or off-label.20
Even if his use of Risperdal was off-label, Plaintiff fails to provide any non-conclusory allegations as to how the warnings provided to his physicians were inadequate. Nor does Plaintiff provide any allegations as to the increased risk of any of the complained of side-effects specific to his off-label use. Plaintiff instead appears to rely solely on the Janssen Defendants' misconduct in promoting other off-label uses unrelated to his own condition. (See Pl. Opp'n 24-25 (describing misconduct involving promotion of Risperdal for unapproved uses for elderly nursing home residents, children, and individuals with mental disabilities ); id. at 25 (describing Janssen Defendants' alleged withholding of information of increased risks of various side-effects in the elderly and children).) Rather than relying on allegations of general wrongdoing, Plaintiff must provide allegations specific to his own off-label use. The fact that the Janssen Defendants may have withheld information about the risks associated with other off-label uses of Risperdal does not lead to the inference that they did so with regards to every unapproved use.
For the foregoing reasons, the Court dismisses all failure to warn claims against the GSK Defendants with prejudice. Mindful of Plaintiff's pro se status, the Court grants Plaintiff leave to amend his failure to warn claims as to the Janssen Defendants. In amending the Amended Complaint, as to the claim based on his off-label use, Plaintiff must provide specific allegations explaining the purpose for which he has been prescribed Risperdal, the unique risks associated with his off-label use, and why the warnings provided to his physicians were inadequate.21
*404e. Design Defect
Defendants argue that Plaintiff's design defect claim fails for two reasons: (1) lack of any specific allegations as to the "substantial likelihood of harm" posed by the drugs, (GSK Mem. 14 n.14; Janssen Mem. 15); and (2) failure to assert feasible alternatives, (GSK Mem. 13; Janssen Mem. 15-16). Plaintiff contends that Defendants continued to manufacture and distribute Risperdal and Wellbutrin"despite reports of both medications causing liver damage and injury," resulting in his injuries. (Am. Compl. 5-6.) Plaintiff also alleges that Defendants "never altered the makeup of [or] composition of the[ ] drugs," failing to "ma[ke] any attempt to ... eliminate or reduce the danger by some form of repair, upgrade or retrofit." (Id. at 6.)
"To state a claim for defective design under New York strict products liability law, a plaintiff must allege that: '(1) the product as designed posed a substantial likelihood of harm; (2) it was feasible to design the product in a safer manner; and (3) the defective design was a substantial factor in causing plaintiff's injury.' " S.F. v. Archer Daniels Midland Co. , 594 Fed.Appx. 11, 12 (2d Cir. 2014) (citations omitted); see also Amos v. Biogen Idec Inc. , 28 F.Supp.3d 164, 169 (W.D.N.Y. 2014) ("Under New York law, claims of design defect sounding in negligence are "functionally synonymous" to claims for design defect sounding in strict liability, and as a result, the claims are analyzed identically."); but see Coleson v. Janssen Pharm., Inc. , 251 F.Supp.3d 716, 720 (S.D.N.Y. 2017) ("Design defect strict products liability claims differ from negligently designed product claims 'in that the plaintiff is not required to prove that the manufacturer acted unreasonably in designing the product.' " (citations omitted) ). "The first two prongs function as a 'risk-utility balancing test' to determine whether a product is unreasonably dangerous." DiBartolo , 914 F.Supp.2d at 621 (citation omitted). "[T]he relevant inquiry is whether the product as designed was not reasonably safe-that is, whether it is a product which, if the design defect were known at the time of manufacture, a reasonable person would conclude that the utility of the product did not outweigh the risk inherent in marketing a product designed in that manner." Id. (citation and internal quotation marks omitted).
Plaintiff's allegations fail to state a claim for defective design of both Risperdal and Wellbutrin. His assertions that the drugs pose too significant a risk to be continued to be manufactured are wholly conclusory. (See Am. Compl. 6 ("[Defendants] ... allowed drugs into the public sector that they knew would cause more harm than good to consumers.") ); Lewis v. Abbott Labs. , No. 08-CV-7480, 2009 WL 2231701, at *4 (S.D.N.Y. July 24, 2009) (dismissing design defect claim because allegations that prescription drug were "inherently [too] dangerous" were conclusory). In addition, Plaintiff concedes that adequate warnings would have minimized any harm. (See Am. Compl. 6 ("[Defendants'] failure to ... warn ... [infringed *405on] Plaintiff's rights of self determination ...."); id. ("Had such information been provided ... to Plaintiff, it would have g[iven] Plaintiff an opportunity ... to avoid the mishap of acquiring injury....").) Plaintiff's complaint does not lie with the design of the medications but the harms flowing from a lack of knowledge of their side-effects.22 See DiBartolo , 914 F.Supp.2d at 622 (dismissing defective design claim because of concession that likelihood of harm would have been "minimal" if adequate warnings were provided); see also Batoh v. McNeil-PPC, Inc. , 167 F.Supp.3d 296, 320 (D. Conn. 2016) (recognizing two different design defect claims for pharmaceutical drugs: "one based on ... failure to provide adequate warnings and another based on the chemical composition of [the medication]").23 Furthermore, "an outright ban" cannot be a viable alternative to sustain a design-defect claim. See S.F. , 594 Fed.Appx. at 12 ("[A] design-defect claim will not stand if the only alternative is an outright ban."); see also Yates v. Ortho-McNeil-Janssen Pharm., Inc. , 808 F.3d 281, 300 (6th Cir. 2015) ("This 'stop-selling" rationale is 'incompatible with ... preemption jurisprudence,' which 'presume[s] that an actor seeking to satisfy both his federal- and state-law obligations is not required to cease acting altogether in order to avoid liability.' " (quoting Mutual Pharmaceutical Co., Inc. v. Bartlett , 570 U.S. 472, 488, 133 S.Ct. 2466, 186 L.Ed.2d 607 (2013) ). Accordingly, the Court dismisses Plaintiff's design defect claim with prejudice.
f. Fraud
Defendants argue that the fraud claim fails because Plaintiff fails to identify any fraudulent statements that he relied upon to his detriment. (GSK Mem. 15.) In addition, Defendants contend that the asserted allegations are not pleaded with particularity as required under Rule 9(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. (Id. at 14; Janssen Mem. 8 n.9.) Plaintiff contends that Defendants have already been found liable for fraud as evinced by *406their various settlements with state governments for off-label promotion of Risperdal and Wellbutrin. (See Am. Compl. 5; Pl. Opp'n 2-4.) In lieu of any affirmative misstatements, Plaintiff relies on fraud by omission of material facts. (See, e.g. , Pl. Opp'n 3 ("Defendants were charged with concealing the dangers ... from consumers, patients, and medical professionals.").)
"To state a claim for fraud under New York law, a plaintiff must allege (1) a material misrepresentation or omission of fact; (2) which the defendant knew to be false; (3) which the defendant made with the intent to defraud; (4) upon which the plaintiff reasonably relied; and (5) which caused injury to the plaintiff." Fin. Guar. Ins. Co. v. Putnam Advisory Co., LLC , 783 F.3d 395, 402 (2d Cir. 2015) ; see Crigger v. Fahnestock & Co. , 443 F.3d 230, 234 (2d Cir. 2006) (stating the elements of fraud under New York law). Pleadings for common law claims premised on fraud are "subject to the particularity pleading requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 9(b)." Putnam Advisory Co , 783 F.3d at 402-03 (internal quotation marks omitted) (citing Eternity Global Master Fund Ltd. v. Morgan Guar. Trust Co. of N.Y. , 375 F.3d 168, 187 (2d Cir. 2004) ).
Plaintiff fails to state a claim for common law fraud. Plaintiff has only alleged conclusory allegations of any fraudulent conduct. As discussed earlier, Plaintiff assumes fraudulent conduct based on Defendants' misconduct as to other off-label uses of Risperdal and Wellbutrin. Defendants' prior misconduct, even if closely related to the alleged fraud, does not eliminate the pleading requirements in this action. Aside from the articles of Defendants' prior misconduct, Plaintiff assumes that Defendants did not disclose the side-effects of the medication because he was never informed. (See Am. Compl. 4.) Plaintiff's bare assertions are solely based on "information and belief" and cannot sustain a claim for fraud without any accompanying specific details. See First Capital Asset Mgmt., Inc. v. Satinwood, Inc. , 385 F.3d 159, 179 (2d Cir. 2004) ("Although it is true that matters peculiarly within a defendant's knowledge may be pled 'on information and belief,' this does not mean that those matters may be pled lacking any detail at all." (citation omitted) ); DiVittorio v. Equidyne Extractive Indus., Inc. , 822 F.2d 1242, 1247 (2d Cir. 1987) ("[T]he allegations must be accompanied by a statement of the facts upon which the belief is based." (citations omitted) ). Repeatedly asserting conclusorily that Defendants committed fraud and concealed information is insufficient. (See generally Am. Compl.; Pl. Opp'n.) The Court dismisses Plaintiff's fraud claims with prejudice as to all Defendants.
g. Claims against individual corporate Defendants
The Janssen Defendants argue that the Court should dismiss claims against its individual corporate officers because "Plaintiff has [at most] alleged they should be held liable for his ... injuries by virtue of their roles as corporate officers." (Janssen Mem. 17.) Plaintiff contends that individual Defendants Heyman, Gorsky, and Duato should all be held liable because they were all "full time managing officers." (Pl. Opp'n 3.) Based on their positions, Plaintiff asserts that Heyman, Gorsky, and Duato are subject to "[d]irector[ ] liability" because they failed to uphold their duties to their corporate "principal[s]," by engaging in illicit conduct. (Id. ) Plaintiff alleges that Heyman, Gorsky, and Duato "were instrumental in illicit licensing, sales, and marketing schemes that led them, as well as, Defendants Johnson and Johnson and *407Janssen Pharamceuticals [to get] in trouble with the law." (Id. )
Under New York law, corporate officers may be subject to individual liability for (1) "participat[ion] in the commission of a tort,"24 or (2) where the corporation is the mere alter ego of the owner or executives.25 FLB, LLC v. Cellco P'ship , 536 Fed.Appx. 132 (2d Cir. 2013).
Plaintiff fails to state a claim against the individual Janssen Defendants because he relies solely on their status as corporate officers. See Bano , 273 F.3d at 133 (affirming the dismissal of certain claims because "[t]he amended complaint [was] vague at best because he relies solely on their status in describing [the corporate officer]'s role, if any, in creating the [harm] on which the ... claims are based"); Krys v. Butt , 486 Fed.Appx. 153, 156 (2d Cir. 2012) (affirming dismissal of claims against a corporate officer because "all the complaint says about [defendant] was the he was an officer ... who oversaw all of [the company]'s commodity pools." (alteration omitted) ); Samad , 2016 WL 6678923, at *8 (finding that "the plaintiff's theory of personal liability is inapposite where the plaintiffs have not shown and cannot assert that [the corporate officers] engaged in the commission of the tort ... in the course of performing their official corporate duties."); Leon , 992 F.Supp.2d at 194 (granting the defendants' motion to dismiss "given the absence of any specific allegations as to [the corporate officer's] precise role as [p]resident ... and his involvement in the alleged misconduct"). Throughout his submissions, Plaintiff attributes the alleged misconduct to Heyman, Gorsky, and Duato under the assumption that they must have been complicit based on their managerial positions. Heyman, Gorsky, and Duato cannot be held liable for any claim based on such bare assertions. Accordingly, the Court *408dismisses Heyman, Gorskey, and Duato from this action for all claims.
III. Conclusion
For the foregoing reasons, the Court dismisses the claims against all the GSK Defendants and the individual Janssen Defendants (Heyman, Gorsky, and Duato) with prejudice. The Court also dismisses the design defect, and fraud claims against the Janssen Corporation Defendants (Janssen Pharmaceutical, Inc., and Janssen Research & Development, LLC) with prejudice.26 However, the Court grants Plaintiff thirty (30) days to amend the Amended Complaint, only as to the Janssen Corporation Defendants, to allege failure to warn claims, consistent with the instructions provided in this Memorandum and Order.
SO ORDERED.
