REUTERS: The U.S. Justice Department announced on Tuesday the indictment of Indivior Plc and a subsidiary on charges they engaged in an illegal scheme to boost prescriptions of the film version of its opioid addiction treatment Suboxone.

Slough, England-based Indivior said in a statement it was"extremely disappointed" by the department's decision to charge it. Indivior called the indictment"wholly unsupported by either the facts or the law." The indictment said the scheme began before Indivior spun out of Reckitt Benckiser in 2014. Reckitt, which was not charged and was referred to as"Company A," did not respond to requests for comment.
