Cephalon sues Apotex for sleep drug patent  | read this item

Cephalon Inc. is suing Apotex Corp. and Apotex Inc. for copyright infringement of Cephalon’s patent of the sleep disorder drug, Nuvigil.

Cephalon claimed that it has already filed a lawsuit to the US District Court in Delaware after Apotex submitted a generic version of Nuvigil for approval to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

By law, the pending lawsuit will delay the FDA’s approval of the sleep drug from Apotex.
