Didn't even think of that but it definitely could be. Very interesting thought. These lawsuits are frivolous in my opinion. How can you claim patent infringement when you are granted an ANDA for an existing off patent product?

Will be interesting to see what happens with this and Opana.

Elite wins either way in my opinion.

In favor of Endo/Purdue - means generics will need to be abuse resistant

In favor of Epic and generic makers - Abuse resistant products will still be preferred when there is a choice. FDA is headed that way regardless
