OTC-Only PEG Market Nears After Court Passes On Stopping Rx ANDA Withdrawals
Executive Summary
US circuit court rejects petitions from Breckenridge Pharmaceutical, Lannett Co., Nexgen Pharma and Paddock Labs to order FDA to conduct a hearing on their requests to sustain approvals for Rx PEG 3350 generics. FDA's approvals of the Rx ANDAs are set to expire Nov. 2; the agency said the Rx products were rendered unapproved in 2006 when the same formulation became available OTC.
